   Indentification still has to be confirmed by dna but the bodies 'are extremely tall which is a good indication it is the missing couple,' a police spokesman told the Dutch media Appointments The couple disappeared in Murcia on May 13 and police found no trace of them since they checked into their hotel. Their hire car was later found on a Murcia street. Visser's family alerted the police after the couple failed to turn up for an appointment in the Netherlands. They also failed to meet a hospital appointment in Spain where some reports say they were due for fertility treatment. Spanish police are keeping details of the probe secret 'in the interests of their investigation', news agency ANP said.

   Spanish police believe the murders of former Dutch volleyball star Ingrid Visser and her partner in south-eastern Spain may have been business-related. 
   
   Their bodies were found in a shallow grave in a lemon grove, two weeks after they disappeared in the region. 
   
   An ex-director of a Spanish volleyball club is among three people arrested. 
   
   Murcia's police chief told reporters there appeared to have been a business disagreement between the couple and the suspects. 
   
   Ms Visser, 35, disappeared along with her partner Lodewijk Severein, 57, on 13 May, shortly after after checking into a hotel in the city of Murcia. 
   
   They were supposed to meet a doctor the next day, but failed to turn up, and the authorities were alerted. Their rental car was found on a city street more than a week later. 
   
   Volunteers plastered the walls of the city with posters appealing for information about the missing couple. 
   
   The search dominated the Dutch media. Ms Visser was a popular player, who held the record for the number of appearances for the national side, the BBC's Anna Holligan reports from The Hague. 
   
   The couple's bodies were found in a grove on Sunday evening, a day after police arrested the suspects in the city of Valencia, to the north. 
   
   Their investigation led them to a house in Molina de Segura, a town outside Murcia, and the shallow grave nearby. 
   
   One of the suspects was named by Spanish media as Juan Cuenca Lorente, 36, former director of Murcia's volleyball team. Ms Visser played for the team from 2009 to 2011. 
   
   The other two suspects are Romanian men. 
   
   Murcia's chief of police, Cyril Duran, told reporters that there had been "certain business disagreements" between the murdered couple and the three men under arrest, the local newspaper La Opinion de Murcia reports. 
   
   No details of the disagreements were given, the national daily El Pais reports. ||||| These crawls are part of an effort to archive pages as they are created and archive the pages that they refer to.

target: – A double murder in the world of volleyball is dominating the news in Spain and the Netherlands, and Spanish police say the whole affair could be business-related. Dutch volleyball star Ingrid Visser and her partner, Lodewijk Severein, went missing shortly after arriving in Murcia, Spain, earlier this month. On Sunday their bodies were found in a lemon grove, buried in a shallow grave. Three suspects were arrested the previous day; among them: Juan Cuenca Lorente, the 36-year-old former director of Murcia's volleyball club, which Visser, a popular Dutch player, played for from 2009 to 2011. Police say Lorente and the couple had some sort of business disagreement, though no specifics were released. As for what Visser, 35, and Severein, 57, were doing in Spain, the BBC reports that they were supposed to see a doctor there on May 14 but never showed up for the appointment; the Telegraph and Dutch News report that they were to undergo fertility treatment.
