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



Twenty-nine year-old Luka Rocco Magnotta, was reportedly picked up in a cybercafe in Berlin's Neukoelln district.



An Interpol notice said Magnotta is suspected of killing Jun Lin, a 33-year-old Chinese student, in Montreal.



Her body parts were posted to political parties in Canada.



Earlier, French police said 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.
