She explained that she had killed the victim with knife blows. Then he dismembered the body and put it in three suitcases, then set it on fire.
The Special Commissariat for the Suppression of Homicide Crimes (DEH) was summoned after the deposition and indication of suspicion about the place where he left the body.
