A 37-year-old Irish man has been arrested in connection with the murder of an American nurse in Hungary, police say.
Mackenzie Michalski, 31, from Portland, Oregon, was reported missing after a night out in Hungary's capital, Budapest, on Tuesday.
Officers said the suspect was identified through CCTV footage and later confessed to killing Ms Michalski, but claimed her death had been an accident.
In a statement, put out on Saturday, police said the man had attempted to conceal Ms Michalski's death by renting a car, putting her body in a suitcase and hiding it in woodland near the village of Szigliget in the country's west.
