Two women will face court charged with the murder of Perth teenager Aaron Pajich, whose body was allegedly found buried under a concrete slab.

Aaron, who had Asperger's syndrome, was last seen about 9.30am on Monday last week at the Rockingham City Shopping Centre taxi rank where he was due to meet a woman, and a man only known as Daniel.

On Wednesday, police said two women aged 42 and 25 had been charged with murder after the 18-year-old's body was found buried in a shallow grave under a newly laid concrete slab in the rear of a Orelia home.

Detective Senior Sergeant Dave Gorton said the women lived at the house, which was searched on Monday night.

Both women are due to appear in the Perth Magistrates Court on Thursday.
