The wife of a convicted cocaine smuggler has been found dead at her marital home along with the body of an unknown man.

Care assistant Maryna Kavaliauska, 35, was found at her marital home in Worthing, West Sussex, by her brother and cousin shortly before 2am this morning.

Sussex Police have confirmed they are not looking for anyone else in connection with the investigation.

It is believed Maryna split from her partner and father of her two children Giedziws Kavaliauska.

He was jailed for eight years in 2009 at Maidstone Crown Court, Kent, for conspiring to import and supply cocaine into Britain across the Channel in high speed inflatable boats.

It is thought Maryna had begun a romance with a new boyfriend, but Mr Kavaliauska was still registered as living at the address.

The children were not at home at the time of the incident and it is believed they are out of the country with their dad.

Forensics officers spent most of the day at the rear of the house, while a guarded police cordon covered part of the pavement and a car parked at the front.

Neighbours spoke of their shock at the deaths.

Heather Denyer, 24, said she came home at 1.40am from working in McDonald's and was surprised to find large numbers of police cars in the street, adding: "This is a quiet neighbourhood.

"The neighbours here know each other but the people who lived in that house kept themselves to themselves.
