A 39-year-old woman is being held in Switzerland after a body was found "severed in two" in France, Swiss authorities said Wednesday.

The French woman, who lives in the Swiss village of Sainte-Croix, was "placed in pre-trial detention following her arrest on November 2 by a border guard patrol," police in the Vaud canton of western Switzerland said in a statement.

"She is suspected of having set fire to her home and of being involved in the disappearance of her landlord," police said.

Multiple sources told the AFP news agency Tuesday that a French woman residing in Vaud had been arrested after the discovery on Saturday of a body that had been cut in two in Fedry, a small village in neighboring eastern France.

The sources said the arrested woman had been identified as the tenant in an apartment belonging to a 75-year-old Swiss man, who had been reported missing on Friday.

"You don't see this every day... I've never witnessed anything like this," the mayor of the village where the remains were found, Jean Roblet, told local news outlet RTL.

Maybe the landlord was demanding severance pay

“severed in two”

At the waist?
Or was the head removed? Saying that might indicate a Muslim. So I guess “severed in two” is a polite way to muddy the water.

It is a shame we can’t trust the police or press.

The suspect is Maeva R.

Swiss authorities have not released her full surname, citing privacy rules in the ongoing investigation, but local residents and the Vaud newspaper 24 heures confirmed her first name and initial to journalists on November 5.

Maeva is a French Polynesian (Tahitian) name that has become popular in metropolitan France over the last 30 years.

In 2024, Maeva was the 7th most-used baby name in French Polynesia and cracked the French mainland top-100 again for the first time since 2012.

Inspector Clouseau would look at the body, and, after a few seconds, say “it is my belief that a crime has been committed here!”
