The Cheongju District Prosecutors' Office said it handed over a foreign man in his 30s to trial in custody on charges of murdering his divorced ex-wife with a weapon.

Mr. A is accused of visiting the apartment in Osong-eup, Cheongju, Chungcheongbuk-do, where his ex-wife lives, and killing her with a weapon on the 26th of last month.

In a police investigation, A reportedly stated that he had booked a pension to go play with his children, but his ex-wife refused and committed the crime.
