Two Brit pensioners found dead at Spanish Costa Blanca home after ‘laying undiscovered for days’ as cops probe deaths

TWO British pensioners in their 80s have been found dead at a Costa Blanca home after their bodies reportedly lay undiscovered for days.

Cops are now investigating after the bodies of the man and woman were found Thursday afternoon at 3.30pm at a home near the small town of San Fulgencio – a 45-minute drive south of Alicante.

Police have confirmed the grim discovery and said they are awaiting the results of a post-mortem.

A spokesman for the Civil Guard in Alicante said late last night: “The Civil Guard was informed about 3.30pm through the emergency 112 service about the discovery of the lifeless bodies of two people aged around 80.

“Firefighters were at the scene along with local police from San Fulgencio when we arrived.

“The bodies have been transferred to Alicante’s Institute of Legal Medicine for the corresponding autopsy and full identification of both.”

It is known the dead pair were not man and wife but police investigators have not yet gone public with the nature of their relationship.

Staff at a local council social services department are understood to have raised the alarm after they failed to answer their calls and spotted part of a body lying on the floor inside the property.

The bodies of the pair, are believed to have laid undiscovered for several days.

Although the Civil Guard has not confirmed their nationalities, other sources confirmed local reports pointing to them being British.

No obvious signs a crime had taken place were found at the scene, although the autopsy results will now determine how the investigation progresses.

It is understood both the man and woman suffered chronic illnesses and had been categorised by social services as “vulnerable.”

The area where they were living is on a residential estate popular with foreign pensioners.

The nearest urban area of San Fulgencio is around six miles inland from the Costa Blanca seaside town of Guardamar a short drive from Torrevieja.

The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office has been approached for comment.

Furious Love Island All Stars fans insist bosses are giving one couple ‘winners edit’ ahead of series finale

LOVE Island All Stars fans reckon producers have already picked their winners – and they’re not happy about it.

Viewers are convinced that ITV is setting up Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu and Curtis Pritchard for the win, with many accusing the show of giving them a “winners edit” in the final stretch.

Viewers took to social media to point out the apparent shift in how the couple is being portrayed after Ekin-Su’s ongoing feud with Elma.

The outrage reached new heights during last night’s villa Talent Show,

Ekin was given a keyboard and wowed the islanders with a “masterpiece” performance—while her long-time rival Elma Pazar was stitched up with a squeaky violin she could barely play.

One viewer wasn’t buying it.

They tweeted: “Them giving Elma that silly violin and Ekin the keyboard to play that masterpiece, this villain edit is really something.”

One furious fan ranted: “Defo giving Ekin and Curtis the winners edit. I’m presuming ITV has a show lined up for them.”

Another fumed: “Ekin angel edit so close to the final and people falling for it.”

Ekin-Su and Elma have been at each other’s throats for weeks after Ekin kissed Sammy Root in a challenge early in the series.

Elma took the move personally, calling her out for being fake and branding her a game player.

Since then, she’s made plenty of digs at Ekin-Su—but last night, the feud came to a shock end as Elma apologised for “picking on” her.

Some fans reckon the emotional moment was all part of ITV’s plan to soften Elma’s image ahead of the final.

In the episode, the two sat down for a conversation to address the situation.

Elma began by saying: “I felt we both got a lot off our chests yesterday. Maybe it was needed, in a roundabout way.”

Continuing, she added: “I just want clear up… because I feel like you really think I’ve got this vendetta against you.

“And in all honesty, it’s never about you. The Sammy kiss obviously was an issue. I don’t understand where all of that anger really came from.

“I get that you were sticking up for Curtis. I personally find Curtis very jarring. That is just my opinion. You, I do not.”

Some fans weren’t convinced the moment was authentic – and shared their thoughts online.

One person wrote: “oh the producers MADE her go have that convo #loveislandallstars.”

Another added: “producers obviously forced this ekin and elma chat #loveisland #loveislandallstars.”

While a third penned: “lmaooo the producers definitely forced aunty Elma to talk to Ekin no ways that raging volcano would come speak willingly to her #LoveIslandAllStars #LoveIsland.”

A fourth remarked: “Oooohh.. The Love Island producers have stepped in and told Elma about the backlash, hence the “apology.”

Horror as Russian attack drone hits Chernobyl nuke power plant & damages containment shell as Zelensky slams ‘terrorism’

A RUSSIAN drone has slammed into the Chernobyl power plant and exploded in a horror attack on the nuclear disaster zone.

The craft carrying a “high-explosive warhead” hit the containment dome of Reactor Four – the power plant which failed in the 1986 Russian disaster.

Chernobyl was the worst nuclear disaster in history and a sarcophagus was built over the top of the reactor to stop the deadly fallout spreading through the wind.

Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky posted a clip of the explosion and resulting damage from the strike.

He slammed Russia as a “terrorist threat to the entire world”.

Zelensky said: “This shelter was built by Ukraine together with other countries of Europe and the world, together with America – all those committed to real security for humanity.

“The only country in the world that attacks such sites, occupies nuclear power plants, and wages war without any regard for the consequences is today’s Russia.”

The President confirmed radiation levels had not increased but with “significant” damage to the shelter authorities were continuing to monitor the situation.

My dad survived Auschwitz by boxing and winning 76 forced fights to the death before pro career and Rocky Marciano bout

IN 1944, aged just 16, Harry Haft was forced into a concentration camp in Nazi-occupied Poland.

To survive the Holocaust, the teenager was told to, literally, fight for his life.

For the ‘entertainment’ of German SS officers, emaciated Jewish inmates were put together in a ring for bare-knuckle boxing contests – fought to the death – in front of jeering troops.

The winner would get an extra slop of food, to keep them fit for their next fight.

The loser, should he survive, would be deemed unfit to work as a slave labourer and shot on the spot, or taken to a gas chamber or crematorium.

Haft, who boasted a strong physical stature, was recruited by an SS overseer called Schneider who taught him how to be a boxer.

He fought for his life in 76 bare-knuckle death matches at a camp in Jaworzno, which was situated at a coal mine north of Auschwitz, and miraculously won every single one.

Haft’s escape from the Nazis near the end of the war was also remarkable. In 1945, his Jaworzno camp was dissolved as the Soviet Red Army marched into German held-territory.

Thousands of inmates were transferred to other camps, which gave some the opportunity to flee. Haft was one of those fortunate enough to get away.

On the run, he would encounter a bathing German soldier who he would kill before stealing his uniform and wearing it as a disguise.

Once he found refuge in a Displaced Person’s Camp operated by the US Army in Munich, he had the opportunity to win an amateur championship organised by the US armed forces.

That was the catalyst for Haft to launch a professional boxing career that culminated in a bout with future heavyweight world champion, Rocky Marciano in 1949.

Haft, who died of cancer in 2007 aged 82, was the subject of Hollywood movie The Survivor – directed by Oscar-winning filmmaker Barry Levinson.

SunSport spoke with Harry’s son Alan, who revealed the horror effects of the trauma and PTSD his father suffered.

“My father was a fairly violent person,” he told SunSport.

PTSD wasn’t diagnosed in that era, and what he went through led to struggles in later life with his mental health.

“He had nightmares all the time, he flew into rages and broke every window in our family home.

“I remember he once saw a swastika in a history book and went out to hide in the local park. We had to go out to search for him.

“I’m a second generation Holocaust survivor and because of my father’s PTSD, my childhood was tough.

“He sort of ruined every holiday, exploding into a rage, and I lost count of the number of suicide attempts he made.”

After finding his way to the Displaced Persons Camp following the end of the war, Harry put his boxing skills to good use in 1947 to win the Amateur Jewish Heavyweight Championship in an event set up to entertain US troops in Munich.

A year later, he emigrated to New Jersey, where he vowed to become a prize fighter.

Alan recalled: “My father told his aunt and uncle he wanted to be a prize fighter, and she asked him, ‘Why would you want to be a boxer? Haven’t you undergone enough punishment?’

“He replied, ‘After all I’ve been through, what harm can a man with boxing gloves on his hands do to me?’

“When my father died I put that quote on his gravestone.”

Haft’s fight record was 13 wins from 21 fights, which culminated in that 1949 bout with Rocky Marciano, who would go on to become one of the greatest heavyweights of all time.

But Alan told how Harry was paid a visit by American mobsters who wanted to fix the fight.

“He said two gangsters came into his dressing room before the fight and told him, ‘You’re going down in the first’,” Alan revealed.

“So my father said to them, ‘Well, I’ve never gone down in the first round for anybody. You don’t scare me. The Germans didn’t scare me’.”

Haft would suffer a third round knockout, but there was a bigger plan in play.

Underpinning Haft’s tale of survival was a story of love.

He was separated from his childhood sweetheart, Leah Pablanski when the German army took their city Belchatow in 1944.

By fighting Marciano, some five years later, harry hoped to get his name in the newspapers so that, if Leah was still alive, she would come and find him.

The years passed by and Harry married, had children, and set up his own fruit and veg store in Brooklyn.

However, as incredible as it seemed, Haft was destined to meet Leah one final time.

In 1963, he received a call from the Belchatow survivors’ association saying his former girlfriend was living in Miami under the married surname Lieberman.

Haft took his family to Florida, where he asked Alan to call every Lieberman in the phone book at their hotel.

Alan, who was 14 at the time, remembered: “I finally spoke with a man who said, ‘That’s my wife’ over the phone.

“My dad immediately interjected, ‘Tell her that Harry Haft from Belchatow wants to see her.’

“The man was reluctant and said she wasn’t seeing anyone.

“So I told him, ‘Okay, if she changes her mind we’re at the Marseille Hotel.’

“About 10 minutes later the phone in the room rings and it’s the husband. He said: ‘She doesn’t want to see anybody, but you she wants to see.”

The Survivor captured Haft’s heartbreaking reunion with Leah

Harry and Alan drove to Coral Gables where they met Leah. But the Leah he met was different to the one he knew when they were teenagers.

“She was dying of cervical cancer, she was so skinny, she looked like a Holocaust victim,” Alan said.

“I watched them go out in the garden for a little while and exchange some final words together.

“It was the only time I ever saw my father cry.”

In 2006, Alan told his father’s story in a book called Harry Haft: Survivor of Auschwitz, Challenger of Rocky Marciano.

He couldn’t find a publisher to touch it, because the material was so dark.

Eventually, it was published by Syracuse University – but there was little academic value in the book, which sold just 4,000 copies.

However, it gained a new lease of life in, of all places, Germany — where it was republished.

Cartoonist Reinhard Kleist bought a copy and was inspired to create a graphic novel of Haft’s life story.

It was called The Boxer and would go on to win countless awards.

It was then published around the world, and thrust Haft’s story into the mainstream.

This would encourage writer Justine Juel Gillmer to pen a script that would end up on the Black List, an annual survey of the most-liked motion picture screenplays not yet produced.

There, it caught the attention of Barry Levinson, who won the Academy Award for Rain Main and was compelled to make the movie.

Starring X-Men: The Last Stand actor Ben Foster in the lead role alongside Hollywood legend Danny DeVito, The Survivor was critically acclaimed.
