Detectives have charged a 35-year-old man over the murder of 22-year-old Chinese student Jiao Dan.
At a press conference this afternoon, police said the man, a self-employed cleaner, had been charged with one count of wilful murder. He is expected to be remanded in custody and is likely to appear in the East Perth Magistrate’s Court tomorrow.
The man was arrested and taken to Curtin House for questioning after a surprise raid on an Innaloo home this afternoon.
It is understood the man does not live at the Innaloo home, on Crocker Way, but has relatives who reside there. A Gwelup house, on Loncar Rise, also linked to the man was also searched by police.
Stirling Det-Sen. Sgt Paul Boult today said the man was identified by security camera footage and information from members of the public.
Miss Dan’s body was discovered on an Innaloo verge on Monday morning. She was last seen alive getting off a train at Stirling about 11.10pm.
The popular Edith Cowan University commerce student killed just a short distance from her home. Her backpack and folded clothing was found next to her semi-naked body by two men who were picking up a work colleague.
