A man has been charged with murder over the death of Laureline Garcia-Bertaux, 34, who was found in a shallow grave in the back garden of her home in Kew, west London, a day after being reported missing on 5 March.

A Metropolitan police statement said: “Kirill Belorusov, 32, an Estonian national who had been living in London, was arrested on Wednesday 13 March at an address in Tallinn, Estonia, on suspicion of murder.

“The Met worked with the CPS [Crown Prosecution Service] to issue a European arrest warrant and received assistance from colleagues in Eurojust in The Hague, and Europol, to trace and detain him.

“He was escorted back to the UK by officers from the Met’s extradition unit after proceedings were completed.

“He was taken into custody at a west London police station today, where he was charged with murder. He will appear at Uxbridge magistrates court on the morning of Thursday 21 March.”
