‘During this incident, a man in his 50s who murdered his cohabiting girlfriend and concealed the body by pouring cement was arrested by the police 16 years later.’

On the 23rd, according to the Gyeongnam Provincial Police Agency and the Geoje Police Station, Mr. A (in his 50s) is under suspicion of murdering Ms. B, his cohabiting girlfriend at the time, by assaulting her head and face with a club in their studio apartment in Geoje City in October 2008.

It was revealed that he put the deceased Ms. B’s body in a travel bag, moved it to an outdoor veranda next to their residence, stacked bricks around it, poured cement over it, and concealed it.

It was confirmed that Mr. A continued to live in the house where he committed the crime for about 8 years until 2016, even after hiding Ms. B’s body in the cement.

This incident involving Mr. A was brought to light last month when workers carrying out concrete structure demolition work found a travel bag containing the body. The incident occurred 16 years ago.

After receiving a report, the police formed a dedicated investigation team, confirmed the missing report of the deceased Ms. B, and arrested Mr. A in Yangsan on the 19th.

During police interrogation, Mr. A admitted to the crime, stating that he committed the act in a dispute with Ms. B.

The police revealed that Mr. A’s drug use of philopon was confirmed during the investigation process.
