Mêda

Mêda, Portugal, is the location where the bodies of two women, who were victims of a double homicide, were discovered. The women, the ex-wife and current partner of Cédric Prizzon, had disappeared from Aveyron, France. Prizzon, the primary suspect in their murders, was apprehended in Portugal along with his two children. The children are now in the care of French social services. The discovery of the bodies in a remote area of Mêda followed a five-day search after the women's disappearance. The investigation has now been opened for aggravated murders. The case is newsworthy due to the cross-border nature of the crime, the tragic loss of life, and the involvement of children. The son of one of the victims reportedly provided information to Portuguese police that led to the discovery of the bodies.
