Two dead bodies were found in a vehicle at the bottom of a cliff between the villages of Orga and Panagra on Friday.

Turkish Cypriot police say the vehicle appears to have rolled off the cliff and are considering the possibility of murder.

They currently believe the car’s driver killed the passenger and then drove off the cliff, killing himself. The initial murder is believed to have taken place in Mia Milia.

Local reports suggest the pair were in a romantic relationship before the incident.

In addition, it is believed that the passenger called the police on Thursday evening asking for help, while the driver was listed as a wanted person at 9pm the same day.

Reports also suggest that the driver called his family and confessed to murdering his girlfriend.

The police’s investigation is ongoing.
