identified a suspect for the gruesome killing of the mother of five

homicide detectives are in the Philippines as the hunt for the killer of a woman found dead in the front yard of a Springvale house intensifies.
They have been talking to the family of Luvina Dayang as they search for clues as to why she was found bashed and wrapped in two garbage bags on December 12 in View Rd.
Officers have also travelled to Sydney.
It is believed investigators have identified a suspect for the gruesome killing of the mother of five, who had been badly beaten.
Ms Dayang, 50, was last seen alive by friends in Sydney after telling them she was travelling to Melbourne.
She journeyed south by bus after saying she wanted to find work here.
Ms Dayang has since been informally identified as the murder victim found by the owners of a property under renovation.
Detectives who have travelled to the Philippines have identified a number of "persons of interest" in the case.
They have collected DNA samples from people they believe are family members of Ms Dayang and her dental records to help confirm her identity.
Australian Federal Police agents have helped with the Filipino investigation.
Det Sen-Sgt Jeff Maher, of the homicide squad, said Ms Dayang's family were rocked by the news of her death.
"They've been devastated but very enthusiastic to help us," he said.
Other detectives in Sydney have been interviewing associates of Ms Dayang to try to piece together her movements before she left.
Ms Dayang has three sons and two daughters who live in the Philippines.
