She was killed by her Serbian husband, the father of the Miss Switzerland finalist discovered her head in the waste bin! He ran out into the street screaming

The father of a murdered Miss Switzerland finalist discovered her severed head in a bin bag in her laundry room while her two young children played in the next room.

Kristina Joksimovic was allegedly drowned, dismembered and then shredded by a blender in her home near Basel. Her husband, named Thomas, from Serbia, has been charged with the gruesome crime.

The gruesome discovery was made on February 13 after her parents became concerned for her welfare and her father began searching the house after her husband repeatedly ignored questions about her whereabouts.

It was during this search that he found his daughter's blonde hair visible from inside a bin bag and discovered she had been murdered, a family friend told MailOnline.

Her parents had initially questioned her disappearance after their grandchildren's local daycare contacted them to say Joksimovic had not picked them up.

They traveled to the couple's family home, but Thomas told them he was unaware of her whereabouts and claimed she was "just going out for a walk".

“For hours, he pretended nothing had happened, chatting with her father and making dinner for everyone before tucking the children into their beds. Her father went to pick up her mother and returned home," said the friend.

He reportedly ran out of the garage "screaming" and asked a passerby to contact the police, which led to his son-in-law's arrest.

Swiss media, FM1 Today, reported that "according to the autopsy report, the body was dismembered in the laundry room with an electric tool and a knife."

It is then said that parts of the body were ground up with a hand blender and dissolved in a chemical.

An autopsy gave the cause of her death as strangulation, while there were also previous signs of blunt force trauma.
