Before her disappearance, Arias had messaged a friend, mentioning her plans to attend a party. Sadly, she was not seen alive after that night.

Her hacked up corpse was discovered by a local who spotted her on Los Enanos Beach in San Andrés on April 27.

Police believe the person who killed her had first stabbed her in the neck before trying to dismember her body.

They also suspect she was unconscious and bleeding to death while the attacker chopped at her legs.

According to local eyewitness reports, the arrested suspect is the owner of the popular Arenales Bar Cafeteria.

The investigation is still ongoing, and police have not ruled out further arrests.

Part of Arias’ neck was also hacked off.

Cops think this was an attempt to dispose of her body in a container or bags before the corpse was left on a San Andres beach.

The bar where the owner was arrested has now been sealed off with police tape and an armed guard.

After her body was found by a passer-by, the Armed Forces’ Homicide Unit was deployed to the search for her killer.

The bar owner was arrested at his home in Las Torres on May 6, and is due to appear in court either on Wednesday or Thursday.

A search has been conducted at both his house and business premises.

Several officers in balaclavas took away a number of sealed plastic bags as they collected potential evidence.

It is not the only tragedy to have struck the Canary Islands in recent days.

A man in his late 40s plunged 100 feet to his death while trying to take a selfie from a hotel rooftop on the islands.

He is reported to have fallen to the promenade while trying to take the snapshot in the early hours of Sunday morning.

Emergency services rushed to the scene of the incident, but he was pronounced dead upon their arrival.
