BBC is reporting that police have arrested two women after they tried to take a dead body on to a plane at an airport. The whole story plays out like the 1989 comedy "Weekend at Bernie's."

Staff became suspicious when they tried to check in 91-year-old Curt Willi Jarant, who was wearing sunglasses, for a flight to Berlin on Saturday. The women, Jarant's wife and step-daughter, said they thought he was asleep.

It is understood they took Jarant to the airport in a taxi. "They would think that for 24 hours we would carry a dead person? This is ridiculous. He was moving, he was breathing. Eight people saw him," said step-daughter Anke Anusic.

She insisted that since his eyes were closed they believed he was asleep. "He was alive. He was pale but he wasn't dead," Anusic added.

The widow is denying accusations that she killed her husband, who she called Willi. "I kill my Willi. My Willi is my god. I my Willi for 22 years," she said.
