'Police arrested a 15-year-old female high school student early Saturday on suspicion of abandoning her mother's body in Okinawa Prefecture, investigative sources said Friday.

The girl is believed to have left the body of her mother, 46, in a closet at their home in the village of Kitanakagusuku, Okinawa, according to the sources. The mother is believed to have been strangled.

The body was found by the girl's father on Tuesday. The girl had been unaccounted for since then but was located Thursday and taken into custody by police officers in Okinawa, they said.

The police will question the girl about whether she was involved in the death of her mother, the sources said.'

Can't they say he was abusing the girl and thus she ran away, and then he killed his wife when she found out?
