Man On Trial for Beheading
February 3, 2009
A man has gone on trial for murdering a Lithuanian woman and then dumping her head and hands in the sea.
A jury is currently being selected and the trial is likely to be held at the High Court of Edinburgh. The accused Vitas Plytnykas denies killing Jolanta Bledaite in Angus last year.
It is alleged that Plytnykas attacked Bledaite in her flat on March 29 last year. He is meant to have bound her legs, arms and mouth and demanded her cards and bank pins. According to reports he hit her repeatedly with a knife before suffocating her to death.
Following on from the above he also denies the following:
- Dumping her hands, feet and head into a river
- Dumping her body in the same river the next day
- Taking her possessions from her bedroom
- Setting fire to her papers and belongings
- Throwing her knives into the river
Very scary stuff indeed! It does make me wonder what kind of person would do something like this?! Is a person driven to this or just not mentally stable?! Then there’s the whole nature/nurture argument which I won’t get into now. Good God though, what is the World coming to?!
