A WOMAN surnamed Zheng and her father have been detained by Baoshan District police in connection with the killing and dismemberment of a woman surnamed Li on January 2.

Police said yesterday that they had been alerted about 1:30pm on Tuesday after body parts were found blocking pipes in Block 6, 50 Xingzhi Road in Baoshan District.

Police immediately began an investigation and about 6pm took Zheng and her father into custody. Police said that Zheng confessed she had killed Li after trying to blackmail money from Li's son, and that she had asked her father to dismember the body.

Neighbors said Zheng had rented an apartment on the fifth floor in December. A resident on the second floor found her toilet blocked on Tuesday and called in cleaners. Police were alerted when body parts were discovered.

The district police said the case was under investigation.
