"Officers attended along with the London Ambulance Service and two women were treated for stab injuries. Despite the efforts of emergency services, a 27-year-old woman sadly died at the scene. Her next of kin have been informed," London's Metropolitan Police Service said in an official release.

A relative of Tejasvini in Hyderabad, Vijay said, "She is my cousin. My other cousin also stayed there. They used to stay together, however, he moved out as the distance from his job was far from the accommodation."

A Brazilian who also resided in one of the apartment's rooms, where the deceased girl lived is thought to have committed the crime. However, police said they were investigating the case.

Her relative said the girl (victim) lived in a state accommodation. "There are separate rooms with a common kitchen and a common washroom. So, that boy (accused) might have come to the flat beside. They did not even talk to each other properly." (ANI)
