London shotgun killing: Man in court over death of neighbour
An Indian national has appeared at the Old Bailey charged with shooting dead his 26-year-old female neighbour with a shotgun in west London following a minor dispute.
A 31-year-old man has appeared at the Old Bailey charged with murdering his neighbour with a shotgun in west London. Rajat Jaswel is accused of killing 26-year-old Navneet Kaur inside her chalet-style home on Chertsey Road in Hounslow after a minor dispute.
Prosecutor Ben Holt told the court neighbours heard two loud bangs on 3 November, shortly after Kaur spoke with her husband. Neighbours entered using a spare key and alerted police, who found her body the following day.
The court heard Jaswel arrived from India in 2018 and was an overstayer at the time of the shooting. Jaswel spoke only to confirm his identity and was remanded in custody ahead of a provisional trial adjourned until September.
