Hassan Malik, 55, has been charged with murder in the second degree, police said late Monday.

 As police were leading Malik away, a reporter asked if he was sorry for what he allegedly did.

 ”Yes,” Malik replied.

 The victim, 28-year-old Betty Williams from the Bronx, was found Wednesday — strangled and then stuffed into a dark-colored piece of luggage, authorities said.

 Blood was leaking from suitcase when it was found, police said.

 Shortly after the find, police released a surveillance video that showed a man dressed in a dark knit hat and leather jacket with light-colored pants, pulling a suitcase near a stoop in East Harlem.

 The man pauses as three people walk by before hauling the suitcase past a dark-colored sport utility vehicle and out of the camera’s sight.

 On Friday, police released a second video that showed a man, wearing a black winter hat and a heavy jacket, at a store. He appears to be carrying several items when he enters the store, takes money from his wallet, and eventually leaves after making some purchases.

 Police did not detail how they got the new footage, where it came from, or at what time it was shot.
