A Canadian gay porn actor, who had been the prime suspect in the murder and dismemberment of a Chinese university student, was arrested by the German police today in Berlin, according to CBC News of Canada.

Luka Rocco Magnotta had left Montreal for France last week, on May 26, hours after the torso of 33-year-old Jun LinтАФa student and former lover of MagnottaтАФwas found by local police stuffed in a suitcase and dumped in a trash pile behind the suspect's apartment. Other body parts, the victimтАЩs severed foot and a hand, had been mailed to the federal Liberal and Conservative parties in Ottawa.

The Montreal Gazette, also reported that police obtained video allegedly filmed by the killer of the grisly murder.

On Thursday, May 31, Interpol issued a notice about Magnotta to 190 countries. CBC reports that Montreal police are calling it тАЬone of the largest manhunts in their history.тАЭ

Back in 2007, Magnotta was said to be romantically involved with Canadian serial killer Karla Homolka, who along with her ex-husband was convicted of manslaughter for the rape and murders of two Ontario teenage girls and of her own sister, according to Xbiz.

In a 2010 interview with NowPublic.com, the porn actor had revealed he wanted to be a lawyer once his film career was over.

"Fortunately, I find criminal law very fascinating and so I have met a lot of lawyers and I am in school studying law," Magnotta said. "I also find psychology fascinating."
