DHAKA: Canadian police are searching for a man wanted in connection with two packages of human limbs in Ottawa and a headless torso in Montreal, BBC reports.

Luka Rocco Magnotta, 29, has been named as a suspect by the Montreal police, who have taken over the case.

A blood-soaked package containing a human foot was delivered to the offices of Prime Minister Stephen Harper`s Conservative Party on Tuesday.

The second package, containing a hand, was found by police on Tuesday night.

That parcel was addressed to the Ottawa office of the Liberal Party, Canadian media reports.

Montreal police told the BBC that they believed the torso and the limbs were from the same body, but were waiting for test results to confirm this.

Mr Magnotta worked as a porn actor, an official close to the investigation told the Associated Press news agency.
