The remains have been sent for identification, but police believe they are those of Rose Pizem. | |
The hunt for Rose has received wide publicity in the country. | |
Her grandfather, Ronny Ron, initially confessed that he had killed her, but later withdrew the statement, saying he had been coerced into making it. | |
"There are very strong chances it is the body of Rose," regional Police Commissioner Nissim Mor told public radio in Israel. | |
Two divers retrieved a suitcase that fitted the description given by the girl's grandfather from the Yarkon river in Tel Aviv. | |
Ronny Ron, a 45-year-old taxi driver, lived near Tel Aviv with Rose's mother Marie-Charlotte Renaud, 23. | |
Ms Renaud had previously been married to his son Benjamin, who is Rose's father. | |
On Tuesday, a Tel Aviv court remanded Mr Ron and Ms Renaud in custody for 10 days. |
