A suspect has been charged with murder following the discovery of two bodies, one of whom was from France, found in suitcases on a well-known bridge in the UK, police confirmed on Monday.

The victims, Albert Alfonso, 62, a British citizen originally from France, and Paul Longworth, 71, lived together in west London. The suspect had been staying with them. It is worth noting that the case has been classified as a hate crime.

Officers launched a manhunt after the suitcases were discovered on Clifton Suspension Bridge in Bristol in southwest England last week.

More human remains were later found at a flat in London.

Suspect Yostin Andres Mosquera, 34, will appear before magistrates in the capital later on Monday.

On this issue, Metropolitan Police Deputy Assistant Commissioner Andy Valentine said that officers were not searching for anyone else over the killings.

"My thoughts are first and foremost with Albert and Paul's loved ones who are coming to terms with this terrible news," he added.

Clifton Suspension Bridge, designed by the pioneering engineer Isambard Kingdom Brunel, is one of the oldest surviving suspension bridges in the world.

Opened in 1864, the bridge over the Avon Gorge is one of Bristol's top tourist attractions and a symbol of the city.
