It was not discovered until Friday night by a relative who turned up to check on them, a police spokesman said.
“The mother’s sister came to the house because she had heard nothing from the family and that’s when her nephew told her he’d killed his father, mother and brother,” he told AFP, saying she had called the police who confirmed finding three bodies inside the house.
Police then arrested the teen, “a 15-year-old minor” who had been alone in the house with the bodies for three days.
