Open lead
A TP24.it headline from the day after the discovery reports the solving of the 'mystery of the headless body found at sea' off Trapani. The record makes no mention of decapitation and the case remains unidentified: the page is not reachable, so it is unclear whether this is the same discovery or a different case in the same stretch of sea around the same time.
