The decision not to monitor a man who then murdered a woman in a reported act of cannibalism after he was released from prison must be investigated, a Welsh politician has said.
Cerys Marie Yemm, 22, died after an attack at a homeless hostel in the village of Argoed, South Wales.
Sources have said she was found with substantial facial injuries.
Police fired a 50,000-volt Taser at Matthew Williams to try to stop the attack in the early hours of Thursday morning.
The 34-year-old was arrested but later became "unresponsive" and died in custody.
It is believed Williams had recently been released from jail after serving time for violent behaviour and the Ministry of Justice has confirmed he was not subject to probation conditions.
It is not clear if he had served his full term.
Welsh Assembly member William Graham said it was vital to look into the terms of the killer's release.
"It is now clear that Mr Williams posed a risk to the public and I am extremely concerned that monitoring appears to have been deemed unnecessary," he told the BBC.
"If true, a wider inquiry into the circumstances surrounding his release is urgently required.
"Questions must be answered by authorities and a full explanation provided on the decisions taken in this extremely tragic case."
The Ministry of Justice said a serious further offence review is carried out in all cases where a new offence is committed within 30 days of a prisoner being released.
Gwent Police have said they are not looking for any other suspects in the murder investigation.
The Independent Police Complaints Commission has also started its own probe into the suspect's death.
The post-mortem examination on Miss Yemm has started but Chief Inspector Paul Staniforth said it would "take some time".
He refused to be drawn on gruesome speculation over the attack, telling reporters it was "unhelpful and very upsetting for the family of the deceased".
It is believed Miss Yemm, who worked at Next, had met her attacker through mutual friends.
"I feel stunned, shocked and sick to my stomach," said a friend, who did not want to be named.
"It's horrific. She was a lovely person. She didn't deserve to die like that."
People in Argoed, 20 miles north of Cardiff, have told Sky News they are "sickened" by the apparent savagery of the attack.
The Sirhowy Arms Hotel - where Miss Yemm was discovered - is used by Caerphilly Council to house homeless people while they wait for permanent accommodation.
Local resident Susan Gibbs told Sky: "We have had a lot of problems up there. Every other week, well every other day sometimes, there are police up there."
