A man has been charged with murder after dead bodies were found in Barnet and Elstree.

Scotland Yard is investigating what it believes to be a double murder after the bodies were discovered last week.

One was found near the Barnet Bypass on Thursday night, while the other was found in Hogg Lane in the Hertfordshire village of Elstree on Friday.

On Monday, police charged 31-year-old Kaziku Tuwisana, of no fixed address, with two counts of murder.

He is due to appear at Brent Magistrates’ Court on Monday, December 23.
