Murder suspect arrested<\/p>\n
SURABAYA: Police have arrested a woman suspected of murdering
\na woman whose mutilated body was found here recently.<\/p>\n
The head of the East Java Police Office, Maj.Gen. Roesmandi,
\nsaid that police arrested the suspect, whom he identified as Mrs.
\nAs, 41, in the south of East Java's capital city, yesterday.<\/p>\n
She will be charged with the murder of Pujiastutik, 32, five
\ndays ago.<\/p>\n
\"We have discovered only two pieces of the corpse,\" said the
\nhead of the City Police, Col. S. Bimantara.<\/p>\n
He added that police had found enough material evidence to
\nform a credible case. They are a knife, which was used to kill
\nthe woman, a saw to cut up her body and some other tools.<\/p>\n
The police, he said, have also interrogated the son, husband
\nand a neighbor of the suspect. The son, Bimantara said, had
\nhelped his mother throw away the pieces of the body, which were
\nwrapped in a plastic bag, although he was not aware what the
\ncontents were.<\/p>\n
The neighbor had told the police that she heard the victim
\nscreaming.<\/p>\n
\"The motive of the murder is debt burden,\" he was quoted by
\nAntara as saying yesterday.<\/p>\n
The suspect used to borrow money from her neighbors but when
\nshe tried to get some from the victim, the latter mocked her
\ncontemptuously, according to neighbors.<\/p>",
