London: Police have arrested one more
person in connection with the murder of Indian-origin Geeta
Aulakh, a radio station receptionist, who was left dying in
the north-west London with one of her hands cut off last year.
The 20-year-old man, yet to be identified, was
arrested in Slough, West London, and he is currently in
custody at a west London police station, the Metropolitan
Police said today.
In November, 18-year-old Sher Singh of Wren Avenue,
Southall, was charged with the murder of Geeta Aulakh. Her
husband Harpreet Singh Aulakh, 31, was also charged with the
murder of his wife.
28-year-old Geeta Aulakh, a mother-of-two, was found
fatally injured by a passer-by in Greenford on the evening of
November 18.
Investigators believe Aulakh was attacked shortly
after leaving work at Sunrise Radio to pick up her two young
children.
She was found a short distance from the front door
of her childminder, who looked after the boys, aged eight and
nine.
Witnesses said she had serious head injuries and one
of her hands had been cut off.
She was taken to Charing Cross Hospital, but was
pronounced dead just over four hours later.
A post-mortem examination gave the cause of death as
severe head injury.
