Australian police said Wednesday a young child's skeleton found in a suitcase earlier this year was the daughter of a woman whose bones were found 1,100 kilometres (684 miles) away five years ago.
Police said the discovery was a breakthrough in the cases that have baffled investigators, and that the mother and child had suffered "violent, deliberate deaths".
"This is one of the most shocking crimes -- shocking and unimaginable -- and another family has been torn apart and devastated," detective superintendent Des Bray told reporters in Adelaide.
"Those people that are responsible for this crime are truly evil and must be quickly caught and held to account for what they've done."
The woman, dubbed Angel by police as she was found with a T-shift with the words "Angelic", was named as single mother Karlie Jade Pearce-Stevenson, born in 1988.
Her bones were discovered in 2010 in Belanglo State Forest in New South Wales state -- notorious as the site where seven backpackers' bodies were dumped during a killer's murder spree in the 1990s.
