A Russian man was arrested by police on suspicion of murdering his compatriot, wrapping the body in nylon and many layers of cloth, and dumping it in a remote location.

On February 4, Binh Thuan police detained the suspect, but have not yet released his identity.

Three days ago, people in Thien Son village, Thien Nghiep commune, Phan Thiet city, went into the field and discovered the body of a foreign man with his legs tied, wrapped in nylon and many layers of cloth, with a series of wounds on his head, lying about 100 meters from the gravel road.

Police later identified the victim as Mr. Echushin Vasilii, 44 years old, Russian nationality. Extracting security camera footage, authorities arrested the suspect.

Initially, the suspect confessed that he had a conflict with the victim over a job offer due to unemployment. Because Mr. Echushin Vasilii could not help, the two sides fought and the murder occurred.

After killing his fellow countryman at a boarding house in Ham Tien ward, the suspect took the victim's body and dumped it in an empty lot in Thien Nghiep commune - more than 2 km from the scene - to destroy evidence.
