The naked body of a
10-year-old Romanian girl was found last night floating in a
swimming pool, sources said Monday.
Her clothes, neatly folded, and shoes were found at the
side of the pool.
Carabinieri questioned some 30 people in a bid to find out
what happened to the girl.
The child went missing last night from the historic village
of San Salvatore Telesino in Benevento province, where she lived
with her Romanian parents.
She reportedly told her father, a farm laborer, and her
mother, a caregiver, that she was going to church.
Her body was found in the swimming pool of a country villa
used to host weddings and other receptions.
The villa was closed to the public on Sunday.
Carabinieri police on the scene are taking statements from
potential witnesses.
