It has been revealed that a woman in Taiwan hid the body of her retired military father in a plastic bag in order to continue receiving his pension.
According to a report by the Hong Kong South China Morning Post (SCMP) media on the 9th, this woman lived with her father for over 50 years. It is known that the mother died a long time ago.
However, in November last year, health authorities visited the house to disinfect the house to prevent dengue fever, but the woman stubbornly refused to be disinfected. When the woman refused to be disinfected even after being fined $1,800 (about 2.5 million won), the police found this strange and began an investigation.
The police visited the woman’s home and asked where her father was, who lived with her. The woman initially claimed that her father was in a nursing home, but it was soon revealed that this was a lie.
Afterwards, the woman changed her story claiming that her brother in mainland China had taken her father with her, but a police investigation found that there was no record of her father leaving the country.
As the woman lied again and again, the police searched the house, and during this process, a black plastic bag containing human bones was discovered. It was the body of the woman’s father. Police believe the woman’s father died several years ago.
The woman’s father was a retired soldier who served for over 20 years and received a monthly pension. The police believe that the woman hid the death in order to continue receiving her father’s pension.
The police are looking to see if this woman has committed any additional crimes other than hiding her father’s body.
