[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Hwang Du-yeol] In a case where a mother and daughter were found dead in a villa in Busan during the Chuseok holiday, the police have discovered signs of homicide.


According to the Busanjin Police Station on the 22nd, the police are re-investigating the case, focusing on murder, in which a woman in her 40s, Ms. A, and her teenage daughter, Ms. B, were found dead in a villa in Busanjin-gu on the 12th.


The mother and daughter were found collapsed in the living room and bedroom of their residence at 12:49 PM on the last day of the Chuseok holiday, the 12th, and their teenage son, Mr. C, discovered them and reported it to the police.


Ms. A was found collapsed in the living room, bleeding from stab wounds, with a weapon nearby. Ms. B was found dead lying in the bedroom.


The police initially proceeded with the investigation considering the high possibility of a tragic choice due to ongoing financial difficulties, as there were no signs of forced entry from outside.


However, the police discovered that the jewelry Ms. A was wearing before her death was missing, and Ms. B’s mobile phone was found outside, indicating signs of homicide.


On the day of the incident, while investigating the scene after receiving the report, the police confirmed that Ms. B’s mobile phone was missing and, after a search, found the phone outside the villa building.


The police have requested a detailed forensic examination of Ms. B’s mobile phone and are awaiting the results.


During the forensic examination by the National Forensic Service on the deceased Ms. A and her daughter, a suspicious drug substance was also detected.


The National Forensic Service is currently analyzing the exact substance.



A police official stated, “During the investigation, suspicious circumstances indicating a crime have emerged, so we are focusing on the possibility of homicide. We cannot disclose detailed information.”
