Croatian tramp died a millionaire, almost


A Croatian tramp who was thought to have died penniless in a ramshackle old house had a secret stash of close to 1 million kuna.Branko Dundovic - nicknamed Dundy by locals in the northern town of Bjelozar - died over a year ago in a house he shared with rats and rubbish.But when local council workers turned up to clear the place out they found bundles of cash amounting to 800,000 kuna hidden away with airplane tickets from the man's foreign travels.Locals are now speculating where the money could have come from and wondering how Dundy was able to speak seven languages fluently."He was and still is a real mystery," said one.Police said they were looking to see if the man had any next of kin.
