( CNN ) -- Police in Paris are searching for a self-proclaimed porn star suspected of killing and cutting up a university student in Canada , authorities in Montreal said Sunday . Police Cmdr . Ian LaFreniere said sightings of the suspect , 29-year-old Luka Rocco Magnotta , are being investigated in Paris , but that he could be anywhere . Montreal authorities on Saturday detailed the charges pending against Magnotta , accusing him of first-degree murder in the grisly killing and dismembering of the student and threatening , among others , Canada 's prime minister . The search for him began after a severed hand and foot were mailed to the Ottawa headquarters of Canada 's Liberal and Conservative parties , while a torso was discovered stuffed in a suitcase and tossed in the trash heap of a Montreal apartment building . What specific accusations he would face if he 's captured became clearer Saturday , when police in Montreal released information from his arrest warrant . Besides murder , the charges include producing , distributing or possessing `` any obscene written matter , picture , model ... or other thing , '' mailing `` anything that is obscene , indecent , immoral or scurrilous , '' and `` improperly or indecently ( offering ) any indignity to a dead human body or human remains . '' The accusations relate to the violent death of a Concordia University student from China . Lafreniere identified the victim Friday as 33-year-old Jun Lin . The Chinese consulate in Montreal said Lin was from the central Chinese city of Wuhan . Police believe Lin was killed and his body dismembered either on May 24 or 25 in a Montreal apartment . A 10-minute video showing what transpired was then posted online . `` We believe he filmed himself , '' Lafreniere said earlier this week of the suspect . `` It 's gross ... This is a very deranged person . He is looking for attention and he got it , but not in a positive way . '' According to a more detailed copy of the arrest warrant posted on the website of CNN affiliate CBC , the fifth charge of `` uttering threats '' accuses Magnotta of `` causing ( Prime Minister ) Stephen Harper and members of parliament to reasonably fear for their safety . '' Harper is the leader of the Conservative party , one of the offices that had body parts mailed to it . Magnotta , who was born as Eric Clinton Newman and also uses the alias Vladimir Romanov , fled by plane from Montreal to Europe , Lafreniere has said . That prompted Interpol , the global police agency , to alert authorities in 190 countries . On Friday , police had indications that the suspect may have been aboard a flight traveling from Paris to Montreal . Yet there was no sign of him after a search of the plane , Lafreniere said . Having earlier indicated that Magnotta is good at disguising himself , the police commander said Saturday that the suspect could now be anywhere in Europe , though authorities have n't ruled out the possibility he may be back in Canada . Police described Magnotta as being 5 feet , 8 inches tall and about 135 pounds , with black hair and blue eyes . His name may not have been known before this week , but his digital footprints were large . He was notorious among online animal rights activists , who pegged him as a serial kitten killer who used cat carcasses in sexual acts . Suspect in body parts probe described as 'creepy ' and a kitten-killer . A Facebook group started in December 2010 dubbed him the `` Vacuum Kitten Killer , '' after a video was posted on YouTube showing kittens being killed by suffocation and drowning . `` Members of this group have spent over a year searching for this individual , who we believe is also responsible for several videos where animals were killed , '' the group said Thursday . `` Information gathered by group members was passed on to the authorities in Canada , and we were informed that they were actively working on locating the person seen in the videos hurting animals . '' Lafreniere has said police are aware of the animal abuse allegations . On what appears to be his own website , Magnotta defended himself as a victim of cyberstalking . `` Once and for all , I will set the record straight , '' he wrote . `` Many hoax websites are created using my image and name , posing as me to seem more believable in respect to the type of audience these website ( sic ) have , I feel I do n't need to list them specifically but people need not be told , not to believe what they read and to take it as fact . '' The website has writing in Arabic and Russian , and shows images of Magnotta half-naked and with lips in a distinct runway pout . Lafreniere from the Montreal police expressed confidence that Magnotta will be caught sooner or later -- predicting his desire for attention may be his downfall . `` This man uses the Web to glorify himself , and ( authorities ) hope this habit will lead to his capture , '' the police commander said Saturday . CNN 's Paula Newton contributed to this report .
