In the murder case of a Taiwanese woman in Kawaguchiko, Ms. Yang was accused of holding a bloody kitchen knife. Taiwan and Japan exchanged information to continue investigating the circumstances of the murder.

Yang Minhan went to Japan to commit the Kawaguchiko murder case. The Japanese side today charged her with violating the "gun knife law". Li Shuobin (right), the suspected mastermind behind the murder, still denies committing the crime. The Taiwanese and Japanese police will exchange information to solve the case.

A Taiwanese woman died in a hotel in Fujikawaguchiko, Yamanashi Prefecture, Japan on October 19. The Kofu District Prosecutor's Office today charged a 27-year-old Taiwanese woman surnamed Yang with violating the Gun Knife Act, saying she had a kitchen knife in the deceased's room without justification.

Yamanashi Broadcasting System (YBS) reported that according to the indictment and other information, the woman surnamed Yang was suspected of possessing a kitchen knife in the hotel room without justification on the morning of October 19.

According to people involved in the case, the deceased was a 38-year-old Taiwanese woman surnamed Jing. She was found on the bed in the morgue that day and was stabbed to death in the neck with a sharp knife. The kitchen knife held by the woman surnamed Yang was stained with blood.

The woman surnamed Yang told the police: "The woman surnamed Jing and I were drinking in the room. When we came to our senses, the kitchen knife had already been inserted into her body."

On the other hand, Taiwan prosecutors have detained the husband of the woman named Jing on suspicion of attempted fraud and other crimes. It is understood that the woman surnamed Jing purchased travel insurance with a total insured amount of approximately NT$30 million, and that her husband and the woman surnamed Yang had been in contact with each other. Therefore, it cannot be ruled out that this case was a homicide for the purpose of fraudulently claiming insurance benefits.

The Yamanashi Prefecture police stated that they will continue to investigate whether the woman surnamed Yang was involved in the death of the woman surnamed Jing, and will consider exchanging information with relevant units in Taiwan.
