JUMET, Belgium (CNN) -- Police investigating a Belgian child
sex ring said Friday they will begin digging for evidence in
the grounds of a house near the city of Charleroi that burned
to the ground Thursday night. Police are treating the fire
as arson.
The bodies of two teen-age girls were found at the house in
September. The last person to live there was a Frenchman
named Bernard Weinstein, whom Marc Dutroux, the main suspect
in the pedophile case, has confessed to killing. Dutroux has
also admitted he kidnapped the two girls found dead in the
house.
