Six cars have been set on fire in Moscow in what police say is the latest in a spate of arson attacks on vehicles.

It happened in the early hours of Saturday morning in the south of the Russian capital. Last week around 20 cars were torched in Moscow alone, including top of the range BMWs and Audis.  Earlier police said they had detained one man who admitted setting one of the cars alight, although no official charges have been made. They are now investigating whether he could be linked to the other incidents.
