A Japanese woman found dead on Indonesia's resort island of Bali had multiple stab wounds and her legs had been tied together, police said Sunday.
The naked body of Hiromi Shimada, 41, was found late Saturday in the house she rented near the popular tourist coastal town of Kuta, Bali provincial police spokesman Col. Gede Sugianyar said.
"We found her body in bad condition with several stab wounds in her stomach," Sugianyar said.
He said police continue to investigate the scene and question residents in the area.
Shimada's body was taken to Sanglah Hospital for an autopsy and the Japanese Consulate on Bali has been notified, he said.
In a separate slaying case of a Japanese tourist, police have arrested a man for the death of Rika Sano, 33, who was killed in September near Bali's Kuta beach. They arrested David Goltar Wicaksono, 26, in early October and he is being held on suspicion of murder.
