An article reports on the case of Anton Kovačič, who is accused of hiding his mother's body for eight years in their apartment in Ljubljana. The body was discovered in November 2020 in a state of mummification, leading to criminal charges of concealing a corpse and fraud against the Social Security Institute (ZPIZ), which suffered a loss of €92,760. Anton's half of the apartment was sold at auction, yielding €136,000. The trial is ongoing, with additional hearings planned for the suspect's sister-in-law, who allegedly knew of the mother's death and offered shelter. Witnesses describe the apartment as abandoned but locked, with police encountering difficulty accessing it during water damage incidents in 2016. Forensic experts note that mummification can begin within days and fully develop within months under certain conditions, though strong odors may be masked by cooking or other activities.
