"A turkey butcher has been jailed for life with a minimum term of 21 years for the murder of her girlfriend, whose body she dismembered and buried in a garden more than 15 years ago. Anna Podedworna, 40, killed Izabela Zablocka before binding her like a chicken with electrical tape and interring her remains in bin bags within a filthy, makeshift grave."
"Your crimes and Izabela's gruesome fate only came to light in 2025. As a result of your violent, manipulative and cruel actions, Katarzyna grew up not knowing what happened to her beloved mother. Your actions caused untold misery and trauma to Izabela's family who were left with no idea where she was or what had befallen her. She added: I am sure you killed her in anger and frustration rather than when you were attacked by her."
"Zablocka stopped contacting her family in August 2010, and Podedworna had denied knowing where she was at the time. Zablocka's daughter, Katarzyna Zablocka, who stayed in Poland as a child when her mother moved to the UK, said in a statement that she has spent her entire adult life looking for answers about the disappearance. Podedworna was convicted of murder, preventing a lawful burial and perverting the course of justice on Tuesday after a three-week trial."
Anna Podedworna fatally attacked and dismembered her girlfriend, Izabela Zablocka, and concealed the remains in bin bags within a makeshift grave in a garden. The remains were discovered beneath concrete hardstanding in a terraced house garden in Normanton, Derby, in June 2025. Zablocka had stopped contacting her family in August 2010 and was reported missing thereafter. Podedworna denied knowledge of her whereabouts and later claimed self-defence at trial. A jury convicted Podedworna of murder, preventing a lawful burial and perverting the course of justice after a three-week trial. Podedworna received a life sentence with a minimum term of 21 years.
