Police suspect drug debt behind alleged murders of missing Queensland pair
A submerged metal toolbox containing two bodies was recovered from a Kingston dam last week, with the remains almost certainly those of Breton and Triscaru.
It's alleged the pair were assaulted and bound at a Kingston unit in relation to a drug debt before being taken to the dam and shot in the head and then the box thrown into the water.
Holes were reportedly drilled into the toolbox to help it sink.
Police had been searching for the 25-year-old man in the belief he held information that was vital to the investigation.

He is to appear in the Brisbane Magistrates Court on Wednesday morning.
The six other accused, five men and a woman, all faced a Brisbane court last week and have been remanded in custody.
They'll face court again next month.
