Student found dead in Aichi apartment with rubbish bag over head

(Mainichi Japan) December 28, 2009

NISSHIN, Aichi -- A female university student was found dead in her apartment here on Sunday, police said.

Police identified the woman as Kanako Ono, 20, a third-year student at Nagoya University of Arts and Sciences. Ono was found lying on her back with her legs under a low table, and a plastic garbage bag over her head. There were no visible wounds on her body, and police are set to conduct an autopsy to determine her exact cause of death.

Ono lived by herself. On Sunday she was absent from a university seminar, prompting the university to call her mother, who lives in another prefecture. The mother asked the apartment caretaker to check on her, which led to the discovery of her body.

The door of the home was not locked when the caretaker entered, police said.
