The dismembered body of a British girl was found stuffed into a suitcase in Brazil yesterday, and her British boyfriend was arrested for the crime. Different parts of her body were found in different places, including off the side of a highway and in a nearby river. It is suspected that the suspect killed the girl in a fight over drugs.

The boyfriend of a British teenager was arrested in Brazil yesterday after her mutilated body was found in a suitcase.

Police claim Mohammed Dali Carvalho dos Santos, 20, stabbed Carla Burke, 17, with a kitchen knife before dismembering her body.

The victim's torso was later found in a case dumped under a motorway bridge.

Last night officers were searching for Cara's missing limbs in a nearby river.

Detectives were probing claims dos Santos killed the teenager in a row over drugs and said he had already confessed to the brutal murder.
