A 31-year-old man has been charged with murdering his grandmother

A man, 31, has been charged with the murder of his grandmother.

Verushan Manoharan appeared in Croydon Magistrates’ Court on Thursday, accused of fatally stabbing 89-year-old Sakunthala Francis.

At around 9.20 p.m. on Tuesday, emergency services were summoned to a residence in Brigstock Road, Croydon, south London.

Although paramedics attempted to revive the elderly, she was pronounced dead at the scene.

Manoharan was detained a short time later at another Croydon location.

He appeared before Croydon Magistrates’ Court and was remanded in custody to appear at the Old Bailey on Monday for a bail hearing.

Manoharan is scheduled to appear in the same court on July 21.

Anyone with information should contact the police.
