THE body of a missing Gold Coast spiritual guru has been found in a storage shed, police have revealed.

Police found the badly decomposed body of Hugo Bonham in a National Storage facility at Indooroopilly on Monday night after arresting his financial adviser for the murder.

Trung Ma, 35, who ran Indooroopilly-based Brisbane Money Management, is due to face Brisbane Magistrates Court this morning.

Mr Bonham was allegedly bashed to death with an undisclosed weapon, police say.

His body is believed to have been in the storage shed for more than two weeks after he disappeared from his Tallai home on February 2.

Mr Bonham, 63, disappeared from his home at Tallai in the Gold Coast Hinterland and police last week said they held "grave concerns'' for him.

Blood splatters were found at his rented Settlement Court residence and a major crime scene was established.

Police were investigating ‘every facet’ of his life, including his human ‘transformation’ business and his gold trading activities.

Vietnamese-born Ma and Mr Bonham were believed to have a business relationship, but police would not divulge a motive or say if a body had been found.

Ma, a University of Queensland commerce graduate, is the principal of Brisbane Money Management, a financial services firm based at Indooroopilly.

Mr Bonham described himself as a ‘divine transformational facilitator’ and a ‘physicist turned electro-engineer turned psychotherapist’.

“He’s involved in spiritual counselling, that sort of thing. He does have a website and he runs conferences and counselling services which are basically designed to transform people’s lives ... into one of happiness,” regional crime co-ordinator Superintendent Dave Hutchinson said last week.

Mr Bonham told his Facebook followers he had changed his name to ‘Huegio’ because a ‘spiritual numerologist’ had told him his old name ‘brought an influence of aloneness and failure’.

A father of three adult children, he was in the process of buying a secluded hinterland retreat when he disappeared.

A real estate agent became worried when Mr Bonham failed to attend an appointment and alerted his Gold Coast-based sister, who reported him missing.
