Canadian porn star accused of dismembering ex-lover, threatening PM

PanARMENIAN.Net - A porn actor accused of videotaping a gruesome murder before posting it to the Internet will be charged with threatening Canada's prime minister after mailing a severed foot to his Conservative party headquarters, police said, according to AP.

Montreal Police Cmdr. Ian Lafreniere said Saturday, June 2 that because it was addressed to Prime Minister Stephen Harper's party office they can lay an additional charge against Luka Rocco Magnotta.

Magnotta is also wanted for first-degree murder, defiling a corpse and using the mail system for delivering "obscene, indecent, immoral or scurrilous" material.

Lafreniere also said they still believe Magnotta, 29, is in France. Police have said Magnotta fled to France on May 26 based on evidence they found at his apartment. Police identified the victim as Chinese university student Jun Lin, 33. Police said they dated.

The case began Tuesday, when a package containing a severed foot was opened at the ruling Conservative Party headquarters. A hand was discovered at a postal facility, addressed to the Liberal party of Canada. A torso was found in a suitcase on a garbage dump in Montreal, outside Magnotta's apartment building.

Police suspect Magnotta filmed the murder.
