Dubai: After almost a month of hearing mostly sad news, the family of the slain Filipina businesswoman received good news on Sunday from the Sharjah Public Prosecution — their mum’s remains could be released within the week.
Lorna Lim Varona, 51, a Filipina businesswoman, was found dead inside the trunk of her car in Sharjah with six stab wounds on August 31.
Maria Lourdes, Varona’s eldest daughter, told Gulf News that Sharjah Public Prosecution had started processing the release papers for their mother’s remains yesterday and will hopefully be completed by Tuesday.
“When we heard the news we were very glad that finally we can bring her home and she could finally rest in peace,” Lourdes said.

“When we heard the news we were very glad that finally we can bring her home and she could finally rest in peace,” Lourdes said.
“At least now we can have a definite timeline and plan accordingly for her last rites,” she added.
The family will then have to present Varona’s death certificate and autopsy report at the Philippine Consulate-General in Dubai which will then issue a No Objection Certificate that is required by airline companies in shipping human remains. This, a consulate official said, could be accomplished within minutes if all the documentary requirements are met.
Philippine labour attaché Delmer Cruz meanwhile said that his office had already communicated with Manila airport authorities to assist the family on this matter once they land there.
As soon as Varona’s body is released, it will be shipped to the Philippines for a five-day closed casket wake at the Holy Trinity Memorial Chapel in Paranaque, a city south of Manila.
