[Asia Economy Reporter Han Seung-gon] In relation to the case of a missing woman in her 30s in Jeonju, Jeonbuk, the police have identified the husband of the missing woman's friend as a suspect and have arrested him on charges of robbery and murder.


According to the Jeonbuk Provincial Police Agency on the 22nd, a report was received from the family on the 17th that A (female, 34), who lives in Jeonju, could not be contacted.


The missing woman's brother said, "My younger sister, who lives alone, has not been reachable for four days. I think something has happened," and requested help from the police.


The police, considering the possibility that A was involved in a violent crime, arrested B (31), who was the last person to meet A before she went missing on the 19th.


According to the police investigation, CCTV footage captured the scene of A being forcibly put into a vehicle, and afterward, the missing woman's phone was turned off. It was also confirmed that some cash was transferred from A's bank account.


Although the police have not found A, they discovered bloodstains in the suspect's vehicle and confirmed through CCTV footage that a blanket, presumed to have covered A, was loaded into the vehicle.


The court issued an arrest warrant citing concerns about flight risk and evidence tampering.


Currently, suspect B is reported to be continuously denying the crime during police interrogation.



The police are focusing on confirming the exact motive for the crime with the suspect and on finding the missing woman.
