Turk dismembers British girl
The dismembered body of a British girl aged 17 has been found in a suitcase after she was murdered in Brazil, allegedly by a man who had hoped to marry her.
The torso of Cara Marie Burke, from Southfields, southwest London, was identified by her mother from a photograph of a distinctive tattoo that said “Mum”.
Mohamed D’Ali Carvalho dos Santos, 20, is alleged to have admitted photographing Cara’s dismembered corpse on his mobile telephone after killing her in Goinia, central Brazil.

“He has yet to show any remorse for what he has done. He has not cried or expressed regret of any kind,” she said. “He has told us that he and Cara argued on Friday after she threatened to go to the police to accuse him of being a drug trafficker.

Detectives said that Mr dos Santos’s mobile telephone contained images of Cara when she arrived in Brazil as well as pictures of her dismembered body…
