The decomposing bodies of an elderly couple have been found in their flat after they died 'weeks or even months ago' during the lockdown.

The bodies of the couple, a man born in 1930 and a woman born in 1931, both from the Spanish capital Madrid, were found in their flat in the Colonia Requena neighbourhood of Alicante on different beds.

Local radio station Cadena SER report their neighbours had called the emergency services as they had not seen the unnamed couple for months and a bad smell was coming from their flat.

Local police, firefighters and paramedics went to the flat and had to break into the home where they found the couple's bodies.
