An arrest has been made in Sweden after the remains of two Britons were found in a burnt out car.
Juan Cifuentes, 33, and Farooq Abdulrazak, 37, were reported missing in July after failing to return home from a business trip to Denmark and Sweden.
The pair’s car was found in Malmo, with Swedish media reporting that at least one of the victims was shot before the vehicle was set on fire.

Swedish prosecutors confirmed earlier this month the remains found in the wreckage of the car had been identified as the two Britons.
Investigations continue in Sweden and the UK, according to Swedish prosecutors.
In a statement, they said: “The prosecutor has today arrested a person on probable cause suspected of aiding and abetting the murder of two British citizens who were found dead in a burnt-out car in Malmö on 14 July this year.
“There will now be interrogations, both with the suspect and others.”
Magnus Pettersson, head of the preliminary investigation, said prosecutors had until Sunday 1 September to decide whether or not the suspect should remain in custody.
