A MAN has been charged with the murder and rape of French student Sophie Louise Collombet.
The 21-year-old Griffith University business student was on her way home after a night class when she was attacked in south Brisbane on March 27.
Her naked and battered body was found the following day by an early morning jogger at Kurilpa Park, at the edge of Brisbane's busy South Bank precinct.
Benjamin James Milward, an itinerant, was arrested in Coffs Harbour in northern NSW on Monday and extradited to Queensland on Tuesday.
The 25-year-old was charged with murder, rape, deprivation of liberty and robbery and is due to appear at Brisbane Magistrates Court on Wednesday.
Milward's mother, Diane, on Tuesday visited the rotunda where Ms Collombet's body was found to pay respects and lay flowers.
"I am heartbroken," she told News Corp Australia.
"We are all so sorry and sad and it shouldn't happen to anybody - and a beautiful girl like Sophie; she's just gorgeous, it's just wrong."
Queensland Police Commissioner Ian Stewart had earlier called Ms Collombet's father Guy Collombet to inform him of Milward's arrest.
"I spent some time on the phone with him. He was very dignified and grateful for the information," he told reporters.
A vigil in honour of Ms Collombet will be held in Brisbane's city centre on Thursday night to mark the two-week anniversary of her death.
Griffith University's Women's Association is helping organise the event.
"It was something important to organise to stand together to mourn her life and stand up against violence against women," spokeswoman Stephanie Kameric told AAP.
