'Canadian Psycho' on board plane back to Canada from Germany

Luka Rocco Magnotta, the Canadian porn actor accused of killing and dismembering a Chinese student in Montreal, was on board a plane to Canada from Germany, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation reported Monday.

The Royal Canadian Air Force plane is headed for an undisclosed destination, according to the report.

The 29-year-old Magnotta is accused of murdering Lin Jun, 33, then sending his body parts to political parties and schools.

Magnotta allegedly filmed himself on the night of May 24-25 killing Lin with a pick ax and dismembering the body, before sending a foot and a hand to the headquarters of Canadian political parties, including the ruling Conservatives.

He was arrested in a Berlin internet cafe earlier this month after a witness tip ended a 10-day-long international manhunt.

Magnotta, who has been dubbed the "Canadian Psycho" and the "Butcher of Montreal," fled Canada on May 26, initially to Paris, before boarding a bus to Berlin.
