Pham Cao Lien Cong, 33, is accused of breaking into the Iruma City residence of Kinuko Maruyama with the intent to steal in July. When Maruyama returned home, Cong allegedly murdered her and made his getaway in a vehicle parked at the property.
Maruyama’s remains were later discovered abandoned in the mountains of neighboring Hanno City on August 1. Following an ongoing investigation, police served Cong with a new arrest warrant on Tuesday.
