Teenager Charged in Greenford Severed Hand Murder

---

Follows arrest in Ealing on Thursday

A teenager has been charged with the murder of a woman who was left dying and mutilated in a west London street.

Geeta Aulakh, 28, was found with serious head injuries and her hand cut off in Braund Avenue on Monday (16 November).

Sher Singh, 18, from Southall was arrested on Thursday and was charged overnight. He will appear at Ealing Magistrates' Court on Monday.

Eleven other men including her husband Harpreet, from whom she was separated, have been bailed while inquiries continue.

Police believe Mrs Aulakh was attacked after leaving Sunrise Radio studios, where she worked as a receptionist, to pick up her two young sons.

She was found a short distance from the front door of her childminder's home who looked after her boys, aged eight and nine.

A post-mortem examination found she died from a severe head injury.

Police are trying to find out whether she was attacked elsewhere and dumped on the pavement in Braund Avenue, at its junction with Verulam Road.
