A police spokesman said the woman on Saturday caught a taxi from her Perth motel to a service station where she filled a one-gallon plastic container she was carrying with petrol. She then went to the park, where her burnt body was later found in some bushes. The Perth sudden-death inquiries squad said they had not been able to determine any motive for her death.
