Swiss police are investigating the discovery of two bodies in the grounds of a mansion belonging to the family of silent movie star CHARLIE CHAPLIN. The decomposed remains of a man and a woman were removed to Lausanne for post mortem examination. Police have released no information on the identity of the deceased or on the cause of their deaths. The bodies were found on Friday after a gardener alerted Michael Chaplin, the movie star's son, to an unpleasant smell in the grounds of the mansion in Corsier near Lake Geneva. Fire service officials at the scene said one of the victims had been found hanged. Reports in Switzerland said there appeared to be no link between the find and the Chaplin family.
