A Chinese man, surnamed Jeong, has confessed to murdering a female Chinese graduate student and disposing of her remains in two locations, according to police. The victim went missing after failing to return home for five days and was found dead at Jeong's residence in Gyeongsan, a southeastern city, on Tuesday. Jeong, a 30-year-old man, was arrested on the same day.
During questioning, he admitted to the murder and stated that he had dumped the victim's mutilated body in Gyeongsan and in Gyeonggi Province, located approximately 240 kilometers away. Police are now searching for the victim's remains at the site reported by Jeong. Given the violent nature of the crime, authorities are contemplating a psychopathy evaluation for Jeong. Jeong appeared at Daegu District Court on Thursday to face formal arrest warrant proceedings.
