Four people have been arrested in Peru on suspicion of killing dozens of people in order to sell their fat and tissue for cosmetic uses in Europe.
The gang allegedly targeted people on remote roads, luring them with fake job offers before killing them and extracting their fat.
The liquidised product fetched $15,000 (£9,000) a litre and police suspect it was sold on to companies in Europe.
At least five other suspects, including two Italian nationals, remain at large.
Police said the gang could be behind the disappearances of up to 60 people in Peru's Huanuco and Pasco regions.
One of those arrested told police the ringleader had been killing people for their fat for more than three decades.
The gang has been referred to as the Pishtacos, after an ancient Peruvian legend of killers who attack people on lonely roads and murder them for their fat.
Human tissue
At a news conference in the capital, police showed reporters two bottles containing human body fat and images of one of the alleged victims.
One of the alleged killings is reported to have taken place in mid-September, with the person's body tissue removed for sale.
Cmdr Angel Toledo told Reuters news agency some of the suspects had "declared and stated how they murdered people with the aim being to extract their fat in rudimentary labs and sell it".
Police said they suspect the fat was sold to cosmetics and pharmaceutical companies in Europe, but have not confirmed any such connection.
THEY HAVE A LEGEND OF MURDEROUS ROAD DEMONS THAT MURDER FOR BODY FAT!? Seriously, they could set up farms in the American Midwest and harvest gallons for free.
-
Good grief.
-
As if we needed another reason...
-
I suppose that the legend that says that mountains eat people is true too then
-
Well if you take siesmic activity into account... then yes, it would.
Seriously, fat-eating demons? What the hell were they smok- oh wait, I guess all the good stuff, amirite?! HA!
-
That is really wasteful, only taking their fat. What about the rest of the carcass?
You can make chairs from bones to sit on while you drink your human giblet soup from a skull bowl, TCM style.
There are just so many uses.
-
Peruvians are known to waste, they never eat all of the penguin.
-
retards! i would be charging more than 15 k for a liter of fat, what kind of business is that
-
Plus, the AMERICAN MIDWEST! THEY FRY MAC AND CHEESE! Also, it'd help obesity statistics while financing disgusting europeans.
-
I say we set up a clinic in the US where we liposuction all the fat Americans for free and then sell the fat for a healthy profit! We'd be rich!
-
It solves the economy problem and the obesity/healthcare problems.
-
Or do what the insurance company i'm working with is doing, charge their obese employees $30 more per month on insurance. if the US did that will all their population, they'll pay all the international debt in 2 months MAX.
-
"BUT FAT PEOPLE CAN'T CONTROL IT" *person proceeds to consume over 3000 calories a day*
-
The chunkies are saying now that then they should also penalize the people that consume alcohol. Next? people who consume products with msg
-
MSG is a horrible awful thing.
-
They need to conduct a study to determine the amount of Fight Club those nutbars watched over a set timespan.
-
But Fight Club is awesome.
-
But they collected human fat in it, too.
-
Oooooohhhhhhhh yyyyeeeeeeaaaaaaaaahhhhh
-
Or do what the insurance company i'm working with is doing, charge their obese employees $30 more per month on insurance. if the US did that will all their population, they'll pay all the international debt in 2 months MAX.
I thought they already did that.
-
Hahaha no! the funny thing is that they all complain about it at a forum on the client's webpage, so you know that shit is more monitored than a congressman's email.
-
The next thread down? "How do I deep fry mashed potatoes and inject them with Sour Cream?"
-
Actually, the next thread down is "Are you Team Edward or Team Jacob?" (......)
-
I'm team Blade. Kill 'em all, Blacula. Kill every last one.
-
I'm team Blade. Kill 'em all, Blacula. Kill every last one.
LMAO! Ha ha, I thought the same thing. Go Team Blade!
-
I'm sorry but the baddest motherfucker of all vampires is my boy Lestat.
-
Stuart Townsend or Tom Cruise?!
Gotta be Tom Cruise. Townsend couldn't even cut it as Aragorn.
-
Those fairies can't stack up to Blade.
-
Aragorn would, he'd plow his mighty sword through the heart of the undead fuckers and then cleanly remove their heads.
-
Fuck yeah.
-
I gotta go with team Jacob. Those are some nice abs, and oh boy, that flowing weave he had? Fuhgettaboutit!
-
I thought you were gay?
-
I'm straight, but I'd rub oil all over Mr. Depp or Mr. Ledger (even as a decomposed corpse).
-
You're not straight, I'm sorry.
-
Those are my exceptions.
-
An exception makes ya gay.
-
No. It does not. The fact is I'd probably not do those things, but its fun to say it on the internet.
-
There's truth to lies. Now I really do like to defecate on the elderly, so I'm going to hell.
-
Does it make me gay that I want to stab all the "sexy" men in New Moon with a sword? And then light them on fire afterward?
-
Only if your balls touch.
-
Why are you obsessed with balls?!
-
How the hell do you two keep on posting at the same time? Or maybe.....
-
I'm straight, but I'd rub oil all over Mr. Depp or Mr. Ledger (even as a decomposed corpse).
Agree.
-
Of course I'll agree, I was the one who said it in the first place.
-
I'd rub oil on Ledger's corpse, but only the corpse.
-
But that's not gay?
-
It's necrophelia, the man isn't alive.
-
But your still rubbing on his bone.
-
...I never implied I would rub oil on his genitalia.
-
Look. If I was a necrophiliac, I'd be all about women. So, now you're gay because I said so on the internet which makes it true.
-
But you're not a nercopheliac. Don't fucking confuse the issue. That's how people like Obama get into powet and fuck over his constituancy. Sweet ironic justice.
-
Is "powet" another silly Sphere auto-edit? Power.
Guess not.
-
Now you're showing off? Your death will be quick.
-
You must be forced to say what the great lord Beck wants you to say. You'll say "pron" and like it.
-
Porn.
-
The daring!!!
-
I thought you were gay?
Honestly, I'm pansexual. No, that does not mean I have sex with your kitchenware.
I just happen to be in love with a woman who I wouldn't mind being the last person I ever sleep with.
Sexuality is a fluid thing I believe, you are attracted to who you are attracted to. Case closed, equality for all.
-
Well, I am a Lesbian, though I will fuck a jar-opener if it's made of silicone.
-
Pansexual? Isn't there were you have sex with half Man and half goat Demi-Gods?
-
Or how about Lodge cookware?
-
Pansexual? Isn't there were you have sex with half Man and half goat Demi-Gods?
Then you don't wanna know what Frying Pansexual is.
-
Or perhaps a bit of Spanish bread is what she really craves in her naughty bits?
-
Cuban bread is quite phallic.
-
Are we talking about money?
-
No, bread. GET IN THE FUCKING GAME!
-
Can we talk about Money cause it's what I want. Yeah, it's what I want.
-
To buy bread?
-
So going back to the main theme. Now they're saying that this whole story of people selling human fat was a false
-
Who's they?
It probably was, but still. Shit sounds suspect nonetheless. There's still the massive cocaine production.
-
Which you should be thankful for. Do you think that all the CEOs in this country work so much thank to their daily starbucks latte? nah bro.
-
? Coke? This isn't 1980.
It's all legal perscription drugs and 15,000 dollar a night hookers.
-
Coke can never go out of fashion.
-
Coke is it.
-
Some meth gives a better kick than coke, and it's cheaper.
