Two cousins murdered their friend then 'chopped' him up, put his remains in suitcases and tried to hide them in a park, prosecutors allege.
Aaron Evitt, 33, and Gerard McGlacken, 45, are both on trial at Manchester Crown Court accused of the murder of 34-year-old Ashley Walsh. Both men have already pleaded guilty to the prevention of a lawful burial.
Mr Evitt later told police that he'd 'flipped out' and hit Mr Walsh with a hammer after he had allegedly slept with his ex-girlfriend, the court heard.

Mr Walsh was initially reported missing after his dog was seen roaming around Boggart Hole Clough, the court heard he was 'inseparable' from his pet. His remains were later discovered in four suitcases in a park.
Prosecutors told how Mr Walsh had attended Mr McGlacken’s house on Kintore Walk, Collyhurst, on January 7 this year, where the trio drank together.
However, at around midnight, Mr Walsh was allegedly struck to the head with a hammer and stabbed repeatedly with a Stanley knife. Days later his body was recovered in several pieces, hidden inside four suitcases in Sand Hills Park, Collyhurst.
Prosecutor Michael Brady QC said Mr Walsh had been living with his partner, her children and his beloved dog, Duke, with whom he was ‘besotted’. He was due to begin a job for Moston Roofing on January 10.
In the afternoon of January 7, Mr Walsh arranged to meet Mr Evitt and Mr McGlacken. He told his girlfriend to have tea without him and he brought his dog with him. His partner never spoke to him again, jurors heard.
