One Of Two Hungarians Missing In Mallorca Found Dead
The body of a Hungarian tourist, one of two people reported missing in Mallorca last week, has been found, a foreign ministry official said.

State Secretary Tamás Menczer said that the body of a man was identified by local police in Mallorca based on personal documentation found in the dead tourist’s backpack.

A local newspaper said last weekend that two Hungarian siblings, an 18-year-old man and a 30-year-old woman, had been reported missing from their hotel of the Cala d’Or resort on the south-east of the island.

The report came two days after witnesses saw that in stormy weather two people were swept into the sea by a huge wave.
