A woman who was brutally hacked to death by her husband in a tragic murder-suicide in Brisbane has been identified as Indonesian transsexual Mayang Prasetyo. Parts of the 27-year-old's body were found strewn across a Teneriffe apartment - in the Queensland capital's inner-city - and some had been cooked up by her chef husband, Marcus Peter Volke, on a stove.
Volke, 28, slit his own throat soon after fleeing police when they knocked on the door of the couple's home after receiving complaints of a bad smell on Saturday night.

In an ironic twist Volke, who maintained two Facebook profiles under his name, was an outspoken opponent of violence against women in various social media posts.
Less than a month before the killing, the 28-year-old posted a link to a news story about a man who was bashed by a gang for standing up for a group of women, saying 'champion mate' as he applauded the victim.
He also expressed anger over two Indian girls who were hanged after being gang-raped as the ruling government called it a 'social crime' back in June.
Ms Prasetyo's mother, Nining Sukarni, told the Courier Mail from Indonesia she was shocked by her eldest child's death, who she referred to as her son Febri.
Ms Sukarni said Ms Prasetyo was 'fine' when they spoke last week and described Volke as 'quiet' and 'submissive' when the couple visited her in Indonesia last year.
She said Ms Prasetyo moved to Brisbane to be with her husband but wanted to return to Bali after complaining of being 'bored'.
'Febri did not feel at home in Brisbane, however, he started to breed dogs about a month ago and hoped that would keep him occupied,' she said.
'I told him to be good with one another and not to fight.'
Ms Prasetyo's mother said her eldest child would send back money to Indonesia, which paid for her two younger sisters, 18 and 15, to attend school.
A friend of Ms Prasetyo's said the couple got married around late November or early December

According to Volke's Facebook page, the pair have been engaged since August last year but a friend of Ms Prasetyo's said they were married around late November or early December.
The man - who did not wish to be named - told Daily Mail Australia Ms Prasetyo and Volke came to visit him in Germany for their honeymoon.
He said the couple seemed 'very happy' when he saw them together in December.
'Volke was a bit of a shy guy. He didn't talk too much,' the friend - who met Ms Prasetyo in 2009 when they studied German together at the Goethe institute in Indonesian city Surabaya - told Daily Mail Australia.
'Mayang is nice and kind girl too. She liked travelling.'
Volke grew up in Ballarat with three other siblings and trained in martial arts at his parents' business, Kyokushin Karate
The 28-year-old's mother said he had only recently settled in Brisbane with Ms Prasetyo after both working on international cruise ships as chefs

The couple, who had only recently moved in to the Brisbane apartment complex, met while both working for an international cruise chip company.
A former school friend of Volke's from Ballarat in regional Victoria said the chef had a dark side and an 'intense' gaze.
'He was a good guy, he was a bit up and down, he could lose his temper like anyone can but for the most part he was just like anyone else. He was just one of the boys,' the friend, who didn't want to be named told the local newspaper, The Courier.
'He was always a little different. He wasn't a happy-go-lucky guy like the rest of us - he was a bit dark.'

A friend of Ms Prasetyo's in Indonesia said she had applied for a partner visa.
'We were very close before; however, when Volke came into the picture she never wanted to say a lot about her relationship with him,' the friend told the Courier Mail.
'I remember him to be a quiet person ... it was difficult to start a conversation with him because we did not feel comfortable. He was very quiet. He was also extremely cold, I have never met anyone like him before.'
As detectives continue their investigation into the two deaths, they say Volke did not have a criminal history or record of mental illness.

You were always such a happy, cheerful person, I will miss you so much I couldn't possibly express it in words. I still remember the day I met you and the impression you made on me. Nobody that met you could ever forget you. This really doesn't seem real...,' one friend wrote.
Another friend posted: 'Rest in Peace in the stars from where you came my dear friend. Most amazing soul I have ever met. The world is less full of the spark with which you shared. RIP in (sic) Mayang.'

Ms Prasetyo had listed cabaret drag show Le Femme Garcon as her previous employer.
Daily Mail Australia can also reveal Ms Prasetyo had previously advertised herself as a high-class, transsexual escort on a British online classifieds website.
In an advertisement on the UK version of Backpage - a site similar to Gumtree - posted back in March 2013, the transsexual wrote she was a first-timer in London who was 'busty' and 'extra hot in bed' with a 'big banana'.
More recently, Ms Prasetyo advertised on the same website for the Teneriffe area, charging $200 for half an hour to $500 an hour for her 'top high class international' services as a 'bokep thailand shemale' escort.
'Anyone need some hot pleasure, I am here ready to bring you to high level,' the ad said.

Officers have spent the night at the two crime scenes trying to find out what led to the tragedy
Police discovered body parts belonging to Ms Prasetyo boiling in chemicals and in plastic bags strewn across the apartment on Saturday.
The grisly death is being treated as a murder-suicide after police found Volke's body in a wheelie bin in a street next to the complex shortly after the dismembered body was found.
Volke reportedly fled the scene by jumping over a balcony after police knocked on the door of the Commercial Road apartment complex on Saturday night.
He had tried to dispose of his wife's remains by using an oven but called an electrician to the apartment after his oven failed, according to 9News.
When the tradesman showed up he noted that the carpet made a squelching noise as he walked across it.
Managers of the recently-constructed complex raised the alarm on Saturday after reporting the couple who lived at the apartment had not been seen for several days.
Authorities could not say how long the woman had been dead, but neighbours say a 'rotting meat' smell had surfaced in the days before the grisly discovery.

The man's family have been left shocked by the incident, saying the couple had a loving relationship.
'They were happy. They were always together,' cousin Troy Volke told 9News.
Volke grew up in Ballarat with three other siblings and trained in martial arts at his parents' business, Kyokushin Karate.
The man's mother, Dorothy Volke, told The Courier Mail on Sunday she had spoken with her son just a week before and he seemed normal.
'He was happy and he was coming home for Christmas, everything was normal,' she told the newspaper.
Mrs Volke said her 28-year-old son had only recently settled in Brisbane with his wife after both working on international cruise ships as chefs.
'He'd been on a ship, going from one country to another. They hadn't been in Brisbane for very long, only a few months. They were starting to get settled. I don't know what was going on... we hadn't seen him for a year-and-a-half,' she said.
Police reportedly told Mrs Volke they still had to identify his body with dental records and an autopsy.

Alex Reichart and Courtney Thoresen-Reichart, who moved into the complex just six weeks ago, told Fairfax Media on Sunday there had been a 'rotting meat' smell in the building in recent days.
'I smelled something a few days ago, but we've had sewerage problems through the building over the past few weeks, which building managers have been trying to solve,' she said.
'It smelled like off dog food, so I just thought someone had either been feeding their animal, or the dog had made a mess.'
On Sunday, Dath St resident Ryan Lane told The Courier Mail: 'I came outside and there were probably about 10 or so cop cars out here, and they wheeled one of our wheelie bins outside.'
'I saw them, there were about 15 cops with their guns drawn and then they tipped the bin over and the guy came rolling out covered in blood.
'The guys who live upstairs from us said the police were giving CPR to him.'
Investigations into the circumstances surrounding the discovery of human remains inside the unit remain ongoing.
