Chef killed wife with pan and froze body

A CHEF was jailed for at least 20 years yesterday for killing his wife with a griddle pan and hiding her body in a freezer for three years.

Peter Wallner thought wife Melanie stood in the way of his womanising.

So he battered her with the cast iron pan as she slept at their home in Surrey in August 2006, the Old Bailey heard. Her body was later found in a wheelie bin.
