Salford torso find: Two men charged with murder
Two men have been charged with murder after a man's torso was found wrapped in plastic at a nature reserve.
Michal Jaroslaw Polchowski, 68, and Marcin Majerkiewicz, 42, both of Worsley Road, Eccles, are due to appear before magistrates later, police said.
A murder inquiry was launched when the remains were found on wetlands at Kersal Dale in Salford on 4 April.
Police have said they are believed to belong to a man in his 60s and his next of kin have been informed.
Greater Manchester Police Assistant Chief Constable Sarah Jackson said: "We have specially trained officers deployed to support the family as they come to terms with this tragic news.
"They are aware of this morning's further discovery and will continue to be kept up to date with how we are progressing."
A huge search of the area was launched after the torso was first discovered.
On Saturday a further package containing body parts was found at Linnyshaw Colliery Woods, before police said more remains had been discovered at Blackleach Reservoir, also in Salford, on Sunday.
Detectives have said they believe all the body parts belong to the same victim.
They are yet to name him, but have said all three men were believed to have lived in the same property.
