Chopped husband scattered around Tokyo

CNNより抜粋。
A woman has confessed to bludgeoning her husband with a wine bottle, sawing the corpse in pieces and dumping his body parts around Tokyo, police and news reports said Thursday.

The arrest of 32-year-old Kaori Mihashi late Wednesday capped a grisly murder mystery that began when a man's torso was found in a garbage bag on a street in downtown Tokyo in December.

The man's legs were found in late December at a separate location in the city, and his head was discovered in a suburban park on Wednesday, a Metropolitan Police official said on condition of anonymity.

The man was identified as Mihashi's husband, Yusuke Mihashi, 30, the police said. His arms were still missing.

The woman confessed to killing her husband, dismembering him with a saw and dumping the body parts, but so far has only been arrested on charges of abandoning a corpse, the police official said.

Kyodo News agency said that the woman told investigators she killed her husband by bludgeoning him on the head with a wine bottle while he was sleeping on December 12.

The woman told them that the husband had physically and emotionally abused her, Kyodo said.
