South African police said a Danish man was arrested after pieces of female genitalia were found in his house.

Police spokesperson Brig Hangwani Mulaudzi said on Saturday that 21 pieces of women's genitalia were found stored in plastic bags in a freezer.

Police also discovered anaesthetic and other surgical implements at the man's home.

The spokesperson said police were alerted by one of the 58-year-old man's victims. The man was arrested on Thursday in the city of Bloemfontein in the central Free State province. Mulaudzi said the man will appear in court on Monday on charges of sexual assault.

Mulaudzi said police have enlisted the help of forensic experts who may help specify other criminal charges.

They have also asked women who have been assaulted by the man to come forward.
