The
23-year-old man suspected of killing 29-year-old Hajar from Amsterdam was
arrested after assaulting his foster father on Tuesday, a neighbor of the
assault victim told Hart van Nederland.
Police
received a report of an assault at a residence in Spierdijk, a village in the
West Friesland region, at around 8:20 a.m. on Tuesday. Responding officers
found an injured man and the suspect at the scene. The injured man was taken to
a hospital by ambulance, and the suspect was arrested.
According to
the neighbor, the suspect first threw a stone through the window and then
attacked his foster father. The police have not confirmed these details.
Shortly
before the 23-year-old man’s arrest in Spierdijk, the police had flagged him in
their national database as suspected of involvement in Hajar’s killing.
Arresting officers therefore quickly identified him, and he was taken into
custody for questioning about Hajar’s disappearance and death.
Hajar went
missing near the RAI conference center in Amsterdam on October 4. She was last
seen with an unknown man on a bicycle. Her family reported her missing the
following day. The police published
her name and picture on October 13, asking for information about her
whereabouts. Her body
was found in a suitcase
in the Amstel River on October 16.
The police
questioned the 23-year-old man as a witness in Hajar’s disappearance on Monday
evening. Further investigation led the police to classify him as a suspect on
Tuesday morning, shortly before the assault in Spierdijk
