A New Zealand couple said they found a cloth bundle containing a severed head while strolling along a popular Fiji beach in what has become the latest gruesome discovery in a murder case that has captivated the picturesque South Pacific island nation.

Similar tied bundles that washed ashore in late June at Natadola Beach contained two pairs of feet, according to local news reports.

Fiji Airlines is running a LOT of newspaper ads for flights to Fiji. Their tourism board won’t be too happy about this.
