Geneva - Swiss police have arrested a woman in what they said was the sex-related murder of French banker Edouard Stern, one of the richest men in France, local radio reported on Wednesday.
The suspect, whose name and nationality have not been released, was arrested on Tuesday and taken to a prison near Geneva. Radio Suisse Romande (RSR) said she was connected to the sado-masochistic scene.
Stern, 50, was found murdered by a bullet to the head in his Geneva apartment on March 1.
Swiss newspapers have reported that the banker was found wearing a flesh-coloured latex rubber costume, raising the possibility that he may have been the victim of a sado-masochistic crime. - AFP
