These are the suitcases and bags used to hide Becky Watts's body parts and the gruesome collection of tools used to dismember her.

A trial of the teenager's stepbrother and his girlfriend has heard shocking details of how police investigating her disappearance found her body divided between packages in a shed in Bristol.

The police today released photos of the bags they found, including some which contained some of the teenager's body parts.

Nathan Matthews has admitted killing Becky but claims it was unintentional and denies murder. His girlfriend Shauna Hoare - who was allegedly with him during the three days taken to cut up Becky's body - denies knowledge of the killing.

Becky's family members have fled the courtroom in tears this week as the horrific discovery of her body has been outlined by police forensics experts.

Police Crime Scene Investigator Lucy Pinkard today told the jury that, in the shed where the body was found, officers also discovered a blood-stained knife with a 12cm blade, goggles, a screwdriver and handcuffs.

Ms Pinkard told the court: 'There was apparent blood and hair on the blade [of the knife].' 

The court heard that, in another suitcase, a circular power saw was found which prosecutors believe was used to cut up Becky's body.

Police officer Ian Walker told the court the saw was contaminated with blood and hair.

The jury was also shown a green jumper which had been cut down the back, as well as a onesie and a blood-stained duvet.
