A man has been found 'cut into pieces' after letting a woman stay in his home following her release from a mental health hospital.
The 67-year-old, known only as Jean, was reportedly murdered and chopped up by his new guest.

He was found dismembered and already decomposing in his flat in Uccle, Brussels, Belgium, on February 27.
Police discovered Jean's head stuffed into a suitcase and other parts of his body scattered around his flat and balcony.
Local media have been reporting that Jean was killed two months before his body was eventually discovered late last month.

"The victim's head was in a suitcase, there were parts of his body that were stored inside his studio and others on the balcony for about two months!" a unnamed score told local press.
Local officials only discovered Jean had been killed after a woman named Jessica, 35, rang them saying that she wanted to end her life.
It has been reported that Jean allowed Jessica into his home for several months after she was released from a psychiatric hospital.
Jessica has since been arrested for murder and desecration of a corpse.

"The victim had been hosting her regularly for several months after meeting her when she had just come out of a psychiatric hospital and did not know where to stay," the same source claimed.
"In addition to her psychiatric history, this woman was already known for prostitution and drug addiction.
"Moreover, at the time of her arrest, she was probably under the influence(s)."
An autopsy has been ordered as the police investigation continues.

It remains unclear at this stage what the motive behind the murder was.
This comes after police claimed that reporter Jesse Baird's murder was premeditated but his partner was killed for 'just being there'.
Baird, 26, who worked as a reporter for Network 10’s morning show Studio 10, and Davies, 29, were last seen on February 19 in Paddington, a suburb of Sydney, New South Wales.

Police later announced that two bodies had been found hidden in surf bags found at a rural property in Bungonia, south of Sydney.
Local officials have since come forward with the belief that Jesse's murder was 'premeditated' by alleged killer and ex-police officer Beaumont Lamarre-Condon, who Baird had previously been in a 'friends with benefits' relationship with, his friend Corey-Dean Thorpe told the Daily Mail.
It is widely believed that while Jesse's murder was premeditated, Luke's murder took place on the other hand because of 'just for being there'.
