Dutch national Joran van der Sloot, twice arrested in the mysterious disappearance of American teenager Natalee Holloway, has been named the prime suspect in the death of a young Peruvian woman found dead over the weekend in a Lima hotel, according to this ABC International News article.

Stephany Tatiana Flores Ramirez, 21, was found at the Miraflores Hotel Tac in Lima, Peru on Sunday in room registered to van der Sloot. Officials believe Flores, who police say was found beaten and stabbed to death in a room booked in van der Sloot's name, was killed exactly five years after Holloway's May 30, 2005, disappearance. A hotel employee told police that Flores entered the hotel early Sunday morning with van der Sloot.
