Police in Hangzhou on Saturday arrested a man who is suspected of killing a woman who went missing at Lianhua Peak in the West Lake scenic area.

The victim, surnamed Tan, reportedly lost contact with her family on Tuesday when touring the scenic area, and her father reported her missing to Hangzhou police on Thursday.

Her body later was found under a cliff on the mountain after a 10-hour search.

On Saturday afternoon, the suspect, a 24-year-old man surnamed Xiong, was seized in Quanzhou county in Guilin, South China's Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region, in a joint effort by police in Hangzhou and Guilin.

The case remains under investigation.
