READ MORE
Queensland man Zlatko Sikorsky has been charged with the murder of 16-year-old Larissa Beilby, whose body was found in a barrel on Wednesday.
The 34-year-old from Shailer Park has also been charged with misconduct of a corpse.
Sikorsky was arrested on Saturday night after surrendering to police after a 28-hour siege in a Sunshine Coast unit.
Larissa Beilby’s family confirmed the teenager was dead, posting a heartfelt statement on Facebook.
“With a broken heart shattered into more than a million pieces our family is utterly destroyed to inform you all that Larissa has been taken from us,” sister Deanna posted on behalf of her family.
“Our beautiful girl has been reunited with our beloved wife and mother. Fly high our darling angel, until we see you again Rissy.”
She was last seen by family members at a home in Brisbane’s northern suburbs on June 15, and was reported missing by her father, Peter Beilby, on Tuesday.
A 40-year-old woman from Palmwoods has been charged with accessory to murder, accused by police of helping Sikorsky travel to the Sunshine Coast when he was on the run from police.
A 38-year-old Alexandra Hills man has also been charged with one count of accessory after the fact to murder.
The accused are due to appear in court tomorrow.
Acting Detective Superintendent Mark White said detectives had been working around the clock on the case.
“Our thoughts are very much with Miss Beilby’s family as they come to terms with and mourn her death,” Acting Detective Superintendent White said.
“We would like to thank the public for their assistance and cooperation throughout the early stages of this investigation.”
