ali Police have put murder suspect Sara Connor through a psychiatric test to shed light on her personality as part of the ongoing investigation.
The Australian citizen left the Denpasar precinct police station at 8 a.m. to travel to the Bali Police headquarters under tight police escort. She was seen wearing a scarf to cover her face.
"The test is not related to her being guilty or not. It is to give us information about Sara's personality," Connor's attorney Erwin Siregar said as quoted by kompas.com.
Connor and her boyfriend David James Taylor were named suspects by the Bali Police last week for the murder of local policeman I Wayan Sudarsa at Bali's most well-known beach, Kuta, on Aug. 17.
Police arrested the pair, who were in Bali for a holiday, after collecting evidence at the crime scene. Police suspect the pair became violent after accusing Wayan of taking Connor's bag that she had lost on the beach. Wayan's body was found severely bruised and still wearing his police uniform. (rin)
