Overview
- Police-reported phone data disclosed Monday show the father’s smartphone held searches on how to dispose of a body around the day his 11-year-old child went missing.
- Investigators say parts of the car’s drive-recorder footage from that morning are missing, and they are working to rebuild the route.
- Police believe he moved the body several times by car and may have left it near a public toilet about two kilometers from the home before it was later found in a mountain area of Nantan City.
- In earlier voluntary questioning, the father reportedly told police he drove by the school, took the child to another place in the city, and strangled the child.
- Officials say he phoned outside contacts to report the child was gone before the school reached the family about the absence, a sequence now under review along with his movements.
