A man has been arrested by British police in connection with the murder of two French students found stabbed to death in a burned out London flat.
The 21-year-old suspect was arrested at 3.40am and is being held at a police station in southeast London. He is the first suspect to be arrested in the investigation.
The bound and battered bodies of Laurent Bonomo and Gabriel Ferez, both 23, were found in the ground-floor flat in New Cross, southeast London, last Sunday when emergency services were called to the fire.
Mr Bonomo had been stabbed nearly 200 times while Mr Ferez suffered around 50 wounds.
