BORACAY Island – A heated argument forced a Briton to kill with his bare hands his Taiwanese wife early morning Friday.

The Boracay Special Tourist Protection Office identified the victim as Fu Chia-Ning, 43, a native of Taiwan while the suspect is her husband Carl Andrew Foster, 40, a British national.

Investigation show the incident occurred past 1am Friday inside Room 416 of Casa Pilar Beach Resort at Sitio Manggayad, Brgy. Manocmanoc here.

Witnesses said they heard the couple arguing with each other.

A few minutes after, Foster went out of the room and told the resort staff that he strangled Fu to death.

The Briton also asked the resort management to look for a policeman to whom he can surrender.

The first to respond was Police Officer 2 Lyn Ibanez who was in the vicinity.

PO2 Ibanez brought Foster to the BSTPO for investigation and detention.

The couple arrived here last Feb. 17 and was supposed to check-out Feb. 25.
