A leading Russian military historian was arrested on suspicion of murder after he was dragged from a freezing river carrying two severed arms in a backpack.
A decapitated head and a body along with a saw covered in blood were later found at Professor Oleg Sokolov's flat in St Petersburg.
The young woman - identified by police sources as 24-year-old Anastasia Yeschenko - was a student of the professor, reported Russian media.
She had been in a relationship with the historian, 63, when he 'accidentally killed her' following an argument, according to the report which stated he had confessed to police.
Earlier reports had said the victim was a relative.
Multiple reports say the academic is in detention in hospital suffering from hypothermia.

He was dragged from the icy Moyka River in St Petersburg in the early hours of Saturday morning.
In his backpack were two female arms severed at the elbow and a gun.
