On the same day, the Chiba Prefectural Police Investigation Division 1 arrested a suspect, Kahori Shin, 45, who lived in an apartment in Minami-Gyotoku, Ichikawa City, on suspicion of destruction of a corpse and abandonment. The suspect Shin is believed to have murdered her mother, Hiroko, 75. When the police searched the suspect’s home after he surrendered himself, they found a horrifying scene inside.

He carried the body to the bathroom and cut it open with a kitchen knife that was in the house. He ate part of the body. I planned to eat the rest later.

True to the words of the new suspect, the autopsy revealed that the neck of the body believed to be Hiroko’s had marks as if it had been compressed. Her legs and torso had been severed with a knife. Parts of the internal organs, including the esophagus and bladder, were said to be missing.
