In a tragic incident in Kobe, a city located in the Hyogo Prefecture of Japan, a 24-year-old woman was fatally stabbed. The police have arrested a 35-year-old company employee as the prime suspect in this case.
Investigators have revealed that the suspect had made a reservation at a hotel close to the crime scene on the day of the murder. However, instead of staying there, he allegedly took a Shinkansen (bullet train) to Tokyo immediately after the incident. Authorities believe this indicates an attempt to evade capture.
The case has raised concerns about safety and crime in urban areas, as Kobe is known for its relatively low crime rates compared to other major cities in Japan.
