Visiting the scene of the corpse hidden in the freezer case
Australian police said that the destination of Luo Haoling's flight was Sichuan, China. Australian media quoted police sources as saying that he had been found by local Chinese police and detained for questioning.

It was confirmed by relevant Chinese authorities that the couple's two children are currently safe and sound and are temporarily being taken care of by the woman's parents in China. The child's father is under investigation and questioning by relevant Chinese authorities.
Reporters visited the apartment where the corpse was hidden in the refrigerator.
There was no security personnel.
The apartment where the murder occurred is called ARBRIA. It is located in Pymble, Upper North District, Sydney, only 900 meters away from the nearest train station. A dozen meters across the road from the apartment is a well-known local primary school.
At 4:30 pm local time on November 29, the reporter came to the Pymble apartment. There were few people in the whole block and it was quiet. It was during the rush hour between school and get off work, and the laughter of school children could be heard at the door of the apartment. The police confirmed that day that the older of the two children left behind by the murdered woman attended this public school.
The reporter saw outside the apartment that there was a bouquet of flowers placed under the sign outside the apartment, but there was no information on the card. An Indonesian woman who was walking her dog downstairs told reporters that the entire community has three units A, B, and C. The unit where the incident occurred is Building A, and everyone shares the same parking lot. "I have met the couple before, but they didn't." Not familiar".
Subsequently, the reporter entered the underground garage of the apartment where the crime occurred. A neighbor told reporters that the car parked in parking space No. 22 should be the car belonging to Luo Haoling's family.
After the incident, the local police blocked the scene and conducted a comprehensive inspection of the black off-road vehicle . There was still white powder remaining on the off-road vehicle. Residents of the apartment said that this was the residue after the police took fingerprints. In the parking space next to the off-road vehicle, there was a car parked, and there was also residual powder after fingerprints were collected. Australian media reported that the police towed away the couple's two cars after the incident.
According to the neighbor’s instructions, the reporter took the elevator to the apartment on the fourth floor where the crime occurred. The door number showed that the door of the apartment No. 22 was in a mess and the signs of damage were very obvious. It was probably caused by the police breaking the door when they entered the apartment to investigate. Several residents next door on the same floor have their doors tightly closed.
An apartment resident told reporters that he had seen Luo Haoling smoking downstairs in the apartment. Another resident said she had encountered him several times in the garbage room.
An insider said in an interview a day ago that he heard noisy sounds upstairs on the night of the incident. "I had seen the couple fighting before, and someone called the police, but then nothing happened, so I didn't choose to call the police that night."
According to information released by the police, Luo Haoling moved to Sydney in 2010 and moved into the apartment where the crime occurred with his wife and their two children in 2016.
There were no direct flights from Sydney to Chengdu that day,
The man may have transferred via Guangzhou
Local police said that on November 27, the police received an emergency call from a friend of the couple and lost contact with the friend. Because he was extremely worried about the woman's safety, he called the police.
Subsequently, the police arrived at the apartment of Luo Haoling and his wife. Since no one answered the door, the police had to break into the apartment and found the woman's body in the refrigerator. According to police sources, the deceased was huddled in a corner of the freezer. His whole body was stiff and "glued" to the inside of the freezer. The police were unable to remove the body from the freezer and had to carry the freezer away together.
Therefore, the police also need to wait until the body is completely thawed before starting the autopsy.
After investigation, the police found that on the morning of the 26th, Luo Haoling took his two young sons, aged 4 and 6, out of Sydney International Airport and flew back to China. Surveillance video at Sydney Airport that day also captured Luo Haoling and his son taking a flight out of Australia at about 11:30. The police also said that the destination of their flight was Chengdu, Sichuan. A reporter from
cover news found that there were no direct flights from Sydney to Chengdu that day. Luo Haoling might have flown to other cities in China and then transferred back to Chengdu. The reporter further verified that the closest time to the time announced by the police was at 11:25 on November 26, when there was a flight from Sydney to Guangzhou Baiyun Airport: China Southern Airlines CZ326.
According to Australian Xinkuai Media reports, Luo Haoling is from Chengdu, Sichuan. The New South Wales police earlier made an urgent request to the Chinese public security department through the Australian Federal Police, hoping to help find Luo Haoling's whereabouts.
New South Wales Police Detective Superintendent Cook said that it has been confirmed by relevant Chinese authorities that Luo Haoling is being questioned and investigated by the Chinese police. The two children are currently safe and sound and are temporarily being taken care of by the woman's parents in China.
Informed sources said that the man opened a restaurant in China and often returned to China
According to a local broadcasting company, on Sunday night, neighbors heard shouts and women's screams, as well as noises like furniture being thrown. But because the couple often quarreled, the neighbors didn't think much of it. Police said the family had no experience with police due to domestic violence or other incidents.
Detectives from the New South Wales Police Force’s Criminal Investigation Team’s Homicide Investigation Team inquired about the situation with the neighbors in the building and nearby residents on the evening of the 27th to find out the motive for the murder. Investigating officials have reviewed security footage from the residential building, and forensic experts will continue to collect fingerprints and other physical evidence in the deceased's apartment.
The apartment building where the murder occurred is opposite an elementary school. Parents and neighbors of nearby students claimed that they were "horrified" after learning about the murder. Claire Jin (transliteration), an Asian woman, said, "This is a very good neighborhood. We have lived here for 6 years and nothing like this has ever happened before. I was quite shocked when I heard the news."
According to the police According to published information, Luo Haoling, 36 years old, purchased this two-bedroom apartment in Pymble in 2016 for more than 900,000 Australian dollars. Luo Haoling obtained a real estate agent's license in mid-2018 and mainly sells houses in Sydney's Upper North Shore area.
reporters found on the Facebook page of someone suspected of being Luo Haoling. Luo claimed to have graduated from Chengdu No. 7 Middle School and later studied at Macquarie University . A friend whose name they did not want to disclose said that Luo Haoling owned a restaurant in China and returned to China frequently. Luo Haoling's former colleagues said that he is "an introvert, very pragmatic, and daily interactions (with him) are very pleasant."
The man may have given up his Chinese nationality,
and will be deported when his visa expires
According to local media, Luo Haoling holds both Australian and Chinese citizenship. However, since China does not recognize dual nationality, Luo Haoling should have lost his Chinese nationality. Luo Haoling’s wife was still a Chinese national but a permanent resident of Australia.
The extradition agreement between Australia and China has been put on hold indefinitely because it was not passed by the Australian Parliament. Therefore, the case currently faces many obstacles involving legal matters and extradition in both countries.
However, since Luo Haoling needs to apply for a visa to enter China, once his visa expires, Luo Haoling will also face the problem of being deported from China. A few years ago, there was a similar incident in Australia.
In 2011, an Australian-Chinese young man named Wei Li (transliteration) killed his mother at his home in Adelaide and then fled to China via Singapore. After his visa to China expired, Li Wei stayed in China as an illegal immigrant and even worked for 3 years, but was eventually discovered and deported. In 2014, Li Wei returned to Australia accompanied by the Australian police and stood trial. In 2016, Li Wei was convicted of manslaughter of his mother and sentenced to nine years in prison.
