THE German backpacker accused of killing his girlfriend Simone Strobel at a Lismore caravan park has been drug dealing and romancing women at a South African holiday resort.

Tobias Suckfuell (pictured right), 26, is living in the resort town of Wilderness, where he has been working as a barman. His former boss said yesterday she would not employ him again because of his drug dealing.

Monica Rogers said Suckfuell told people about the murder of his girlfriend after arriving at Wilderness, on South Africa's Garden Route, in June 2005 and became a "a real player" with many women soon afterwards.
