The body of a man with his hands and feet nailed to a wooden crossand a crown of thorns on his head has been found in an abandoned stone quarry, South Korean police said Wednesday.
A man wearing only underwear, with a wound on the side of his torso and nylon strings tied around his neck, arms and stomach, was found crucified Sunday in Mungyong, about 115 miles (190 kilometers) southeast of Seoul, said Chung Ji-chun, chief of theviolent crime section at Gyeongbuk Provincial Police Agency.
Two smaller crosses were erected on each side of the cross he was nailed to, Chung said.
Police also found nails, a hammer, an electric drill, pieces of wood and instructions on how to build crosses inside a tent near the scene, Chung said. An SUV belonging to the dead man was found nearby.
Police are waiting for a forensic report to determine the exact time and cause of the man's death and whether it was a homicide or suicide.
Chung identified the man as a 58-year old surnamed Kim.
