A resident of Binh Duong’s Tan Uyen Town noticed the human feet with shoes on when he approached a coal fire on a vacant piece of land on Wednesday afternoon.
The police, whom he informed, then found two hands with press-on nails, and parts of the body in a cloth bag at the site.
The victim has been determined to be a person between 30-35 years of age and 1.55-1.59 meters tall, and killed around 10 days earlier.
Binh Duong police have issued public statements looking for people who might know the victim to help with the investigation.
