Women body found in lake near Clooney's Italy home

London, April 4 (ANI): The body of an unidentified woman with her throat slashed was found floating near actor George Clooney's lakeside Italian home.

Giovanni Cetti, a passer-by, noticed the body near Clooney's 20million pound villa at Laglio, on the shore of Lake Como.

"I saw her floating in the water out in the lake, close to a buoy and not far from George Clooney's house," the Daily Star quoted Cetti, as saying.

The woman is believed to be between 25-30 years of age.

Cops suspect she may have been a high-class escort.

The woman is reported to be attractive and "well kept", with painted fingernails and dyed brown hair.

She was dressed in a T-shirt and black underwear.

A dolphin was tattooed on her left breast and she is believed to have had breast surgery.

Officers also suspect she may have been murdered in Switzerland, 40 miles away, and thrown in one of the many rivers that flow into the lake.

"There is a strong wind blowing towards the south and we believe the body was dumped up lake and taken down close to the home of George Clooney," a police spokesman said. (ANI)
