PalmThe Civil Guard is investigating the discovery of the body of a dead woman found on a beach in Formentera. According to initial information, the victim may be pregnant, although this remains to be confirmed by the autopsy.
The events took place shortly after 8 a.m. on les Canyes beach, in Es Pujols, when a person alerted the Emergency services. A Civil Guard patrol was dispatched to the scene, confirming the presence of the corpse.
The body corresponds to a woman of sub-Saharan origin, next to whom a life jacket was found, suggesting a possible arrival by sea.
The officers observed swelling in the abdominal area, which is why it is not ruled out that the woman was pregnant. However, the autopsy will be the one to determine the causes of death and confirm this circumstance.
At around 10:30 a.m., the body was removed.
