Police found 42-year-old Russian model Irina Dvizova and her 15-year-old daughter, Dayana, brutally slain, tied with rope and wrapped in blood-soaked bedsheets in Turkey, according to multiple reports.
Officers on patrol found the bodies when they came across a sheet tied with a rope on the steep terrain in Bodrum, and looked inside, according to Turkish outlet Haberturk. A manhunt is reportedly now under way for Dvizova’s ex-husband, who was said to have allegedly been abusive toward her.
Family members reportedly discovered blood on the sofa in Dvizova’s rented villa, after days of silence prompted them to check on the mother and daughter. Both bodies were located with visible gunshot wounds, according to the Russian news site, Pravda.
