The fact they decided to arrest him for murder and not just keep him in on the abduction arrest speaks volumes. That, the focussing of the search area and what they've NOT said suggests there has either been a confession or other evidence supporting the murder charge.

If there wasn't evidence for murder I'd imagine they would have charged him with abduction and opposed bail which would have kept him locked up for a bit anyway.
Actually i have thought that the police have given very little information out since his arrest i put that down to him not saying anything but maybe he has has been telling them stuff and they don't want the media getting it untill they have built a case

That explains it then
