Police reportedly discovered a woman's dismembered body parts boiling in chemicals when they were called to a Teneriffe apartment on Saturday night.

A murder-suicide is believed to be behind the woman's grisly death, as well as that of a man whose body was found in a wheelie bin in nearby Dath Street.

Detectives are yet to confirm details revealed in a Channel Nine news report on Sunday night that alleged the woman's severed body parts were found in garbage bags and boiling in chemicals at the recently-constructed Commercial Road apartment complex.

Police made the grim discovery when they responded to requests for a welfare check about 9pm on Saturday.

A man who lived in the apartment with the woman fled the scene when they arrived.

Officers gave chase but discovered his bloodied body in a wheelie bin in a laneway beside the apartment complex a short time later.

Police say he took his own life.

Detective Senior Sergeant Tom Armitt, officer-in-charge of the Fortitude Valley Criminal Investigation Bureau, told reporters on Sunday he could not say how long the woman had been dead.
