A basketball player has been charged with murder after his girlfriend’s body was discovered in a house that was ‘suspiciously’ on fire.
Chudier Thowath Pal, 29, was arrested after his girlfriend Stephanie Lee, a mother of five, was found dead around 7:15 am Saturday in a house on Ravenscar Street in Doubleview, north Perth.
The semi-professional basketball player, who shared the home with the 30-year-old, was charged with murder.

He appeared in the Perth Magistrates Court on Sunday, where he was told he was showing signs of psychosis.
The court heard that an officer heard Pal muttering about a ‘galaxy in his head and a neutron star for his father’ when he was arrested. WA today reported.
