Police on Wednesday arrested a suspect in a high-profile murder case upon her arrival here from New Zealand where she was at large for a little over a week, officials said.

The 32-year-old woman is accused of complicity in the murder case involving her 35-year-old husband who is suspected of killing his mother, stepfather and half-brother in South Korea on Oct. 21.

Her husband, only identified by his surname Kim, was arrested on Sunday by New Zealand police on a separate charge of theft.

Seoul authorities are seeking to have him extradited.
