A woman’s remains were found in mountains surrounding Osaka and Kyoto this week.

 

The man police believe to be responsible, Yevgeniy Vasilievich Bayraktar, a New Yorker on vacation, is now in custody being questioned by authorities after the grim revelation.

 

 

 

The 27-year-old victim triggered alarms when she didn’t arrive home from date she’d arranged on a Japanese dating app. Suspicions rose further when Mr. Bayraktar was seen leaving his apartment multiple times with a suitcase unaccompanied.

 

The head of the woman, who has not been identified, was found inside a hotel room rented by the American tourist.

 

He has since denied all allegations.
