Dismembered body of woman found in Adachi

Parts of a female body were found in a house in Adachi Ward, Tokyo, on Thursday, police said, adding that they have arrested two other occupants of the house. According to police, NHK bill collector Koji Shiga, 47, and his common-law wife Tomoko Hitomi, 34, allegedly killed Shiga's ex-wife, Miho Shiga, 40, earlier this month and cut up her body.

Shiga and Hitomi turned themselves in to police early Thursday morning. Upon inspecting the house, police found an amputated neck, arm, leg and torso in a plastic bag in the living room on the second floor. Shiga and Hitomi shared the house with the victim, police said. According to NHK, Shiga has taken several days off from work since late May due to injury. Police said the suspects have so far given no motive for the crime.
