After a 56-year-old man was discovered dead in a home fire, a 37-year-old woman was charged with murder and arson.
Following a fatal fire in Stratford, east London, on Thursday, August 25, Caroline Mothershill was apprehended and detained.
Soon after 10 am, police arrived at the Gilbert Road residence and found the corpse of the deceased.
Yesterday, a special post-mortem examination was performed, and the results of further examinations are anticipated shortly.
Mothershill was subsequently detained and will make an appearance in court later today at Thames Magistrates’ Court.
