Dead OFW found inside a suitcase in Egypt

ABS-CBNNews.com reports that the dead body of a female overseas Filipino worker (OFW) was found stuffed inside a suitcase in Cairo, Egypt, last August 17.

According to the report, which was based on a confirmation issued by Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) spokesperson Raul Hernandez on Wednesday, August 21, the suitcase containing the OFW’s dead body was dumped in a trash bin in the Egyptian capital. Although the Philippine Embassy in Cairo is currently coordinating with authorities to immediately identify the woman, Hernandez said the Egyptian police "are having a hard time identifying the woman since her body was already in an advanced state of decomposition when discovered."
