Four waitresses dismembered, two men held
TWO men have been arrested in Shenzhen City, Guangdong Province, in the robbery and slaying of four nightclub waitresses, parts of whose bodies were cut up and flushed down the toilet at the men's apartment.
Xie Bingyou, 32, and Lin Hu, 35, confessed to have lured the victims to their flat and robbed and dismembered them, police announced yesterday.
Some body parts flushed down the toilet blocked sewage pipes. Police were alerted on June 16 after workers who came to unclog the pipes made the horrible discovery, Guangdong media reported.
The suspects also are believed to have removed some of the body parts from the apartment and dumped them into suburban ditches.
All the victims are thought to have been killed and dismembered inside the men's 15th floor apartment in the city's Luohu District.
Police combed through surveillance footage and discovered the four women who entered the building since May never exited. Police caught the suspects in the wee hours of June 21.
Two of the victims were reported missing, including a 29-year-old woman surnamed Tan. Her husband reported on June 12 that Tan had been missing since they last talked on the phone on June 7. Tan is thought to have been killed that evening - the third victim. The last victim is thought to have been murdered on June 17, local media reported.
The victims were robbed of their cash and mobile phones and one was forced to divulge her bank card combination before being killed. The bank account was later emptied of cash from an ATM machine, according to police.
Residents from the building told local media the corridors near the men's apartment started to smell rotten in recent weeks. As news of the slayings spread, some frightened tenants moved out.
Both the suspects are Guangdong natives. Police had not said by late yesterday how the men had lured the women to their apartment.
