Police in Berlin have arrested the Canadian porn actor wanted for the murder and dismemberment of his lover.

Luka Rocco Magnotta, aged 29, was picked up in a cybercafe in Berlin's Neukoelln district.

An Interpol notice says Mr Magnotta is suspected of killing Jun Lin, a 33-year-old Chinese student, in Montreal. Body parts were also posted to political parties in Canada.

He faces charges in Canada of murder and threatening Canadian politicians.

Before his arrest, French police said Mr Magnotta had flown to Paris from Montreal.

Investigators say a video posted online, in which a man apparently uses an ice pick to kill another man, is believed to show Jun Lin's murder.

The suspect had reportedly worked as a bisexual porn actor and model.

'You got me'

Earlier, police in Paris found items belonging to Mr Magnotta in a hotel room - including pornographic magazines and airline sick bags, French media say.

The German news website Spiegel reported that he was first spotted by a passenger travelling on a bus from France to Berlin.
