Woman’s Body Found In Her Apartment 42 Years After She Died

Back in 1966, a Zagreb, Croatia woman named Hedviga Golik made herself a cup of tea, sat down in front of her television set and prepared to watch a program she wanted to see. She never finished either the drink or the show.

Golik sadly passed away while she was relaxing by the tube that day. She was only 42 years of age.

The story isn’t terribly unusual but what happened after that event is.

Friends and neighbours began to wonder whatever became of the woman who lived next door, but no one ever went over to investigate. Most assumed she’d simply moved out of the capital and carried on with her life.

Which is what makes this week’s discovery both bizarre and tragic. After 42 long years, someone finally entered Golik’s long closed-up apartment and found her remains still sitting in the same armchair where she’d sat to watch that show so many decades ago.

Now authorities are trying to figure out why no one caught on, why no relative ever came to call and how it’s possible a residence could stay unattended for that length of time without somebody becoming suspicious.

Golik was reported missing way back when, but for some reason, no one ever checked her home. When cops finally went to investigate who owned the mysterious tiny apartment, they discovered Golik had never left it.

Cops are baffled by the stunning find and are planning to investigate how the poor  woman’s fate was left hanging for such a long time.
