FOLLOW UP: FRENCH POLICE ARREST SUSPECT IN SWEDISH TEEN'S MURDER

Reuters:

French police said on Friday they had arrested a man in connection with the killing of a Swedish teenager who was abducted and murdered in Paris.

Police launched a large operation involving about 40 investigators after the charred body of Sussanna Zetterberg, 19, was discovered on Saturday in woods outside Paris just hours after she left a nightclub in the heart of the city.

Her hands were tied behind her back and a post-mortem showed she had four bullet holes in her head.

No further details were immediately available about the man who was arrested in a Parisian suburb and is being held for questioning.

Prosecutors are also investigating whether there are any links with a case in February when another 19-year-old Swede was raped by a man who had posed as a taxi driver.

The two cases prompted the Swedish embassy to use national press to warn Swedish women not to go out alone in the French capital at night.

• WHY ARE THEY HIDING THE ID OF THE SUSPECT? COULD IT BE HE'S MUSLIM?
• IT'S PROBABLE FOR REASONS MENTIONED HERE, AND THE FACT THE ARREST WAS MADE IN THE MUSLIM-FILLED SUBURBS.
