Homicide in the rear compartment of Nanzi, Kaohsiung: The 22-year-old suspect surrendered after trying to abandon the body in Taitung

The 22-year-old suspect surnamed Mu once planned to abandon the body and flee. He drove the body overnight to the mountains of Taitung or a remote coast and dumped it.

Prosecutors investigated the "trunk compartment murder case" in Nanzi, Kaohsiung and found that the 22-year-old suspect once planned to abandon the body and flee. He drove hundreds of kilometers overnight, southward and across Pingtung, with the intention of taking the body to the mountains of Taitung or a remote coast to dump it. During the escape process, in order to cover up the fact that Zhang Nan was dead, Mu Su even took out the deceased's mobile phone and deliberately called Zhang Nan's grandma to create the illusion that Zhang Nan was still alive and try to delay the time for his family members to report the crime. He was extremely thoughtful.

However, the escape journey put Mu Su under tremendous psychological pressure. After arriving in Taitung, he suffered from panic and conscience condemnation. He knew that the law was closed and that he could not escape for a while. After experiencing the inner battle between heaven and man, he finally decided to give up the idea of ​​abandoning the body. He turned the car around again, drove all the way back to Kaohsiung, and called the police in shock, ending this terrifying "escape with a corpse."

At present, the police have cordoned off the scene overnight and assigned forensic investigators to collect evidence from the vehicles and dealerships involved. The entire case will be transferred to the Qiaotou District Prosecutor's Office for investigation on suspicion of homicide. As for the detailed violence process, whether there are other accomplices present, and the exact cause of death, further autopsy and autopsy by the prosecutors are still needed to clarify.
