SEOUL (Reuters) - South Korean police unveiled on Monday the identity of a man accused of murdering a colleague a day before a court was set to rule on whether he had stalked her, a case that sparked a public demand for tougher measures to stamp out such crimes.

Jeon Joo-hwan, 31, was arrested on charges of murder over the stabbing death last Wednesday of a 28-year-old woman in a subway restroom while she was on duty, officials said.
