A couple have appeared in court today accused of the murder of a 49-year-old man whose body was dismembered and left in three different locations.
Simon Shotton was said to have been killed sometime before August 26.
Dorset Police launched a murder enquiry when a member of the public found some of his body parts in a bag as they walked up the Manor Steps zig-zag path on the cliff at Boscombe, Bournemouth.
Debbie Ann Pereira, 38, and 48-year-old Benjamin Lee Atkins, who both live in Bournemouth, were charged last night with Mr Shotton's murder.
They appeared side by side in the dock at Poole Magistrates' Court today to answer a single murder charge.
The pair, dressed in grey tracksuits, only spoke to confirm their names and addresses during a five minute hearing.
No pleas were entered and they were remanded in custody to appear at Bournemouth Crown Court tomorrow (Weds).
