Gurvinder Johal , a 37-year-old Indian-origin man, was fatally stabbed inside a Lloyds bank branch in Derby, eastern England, on Tuesday afternoon, reported BBC.
The incident took place in broad daylight on St. Peter's Street. Emergency services were called to the scene around 2:30 pm, but Johal was pronounced dead shortly after.
A 47-year-old Somalian man named Haybe Cabdiraxmaan Nur , from Normanton in Derby, had been charged with Johal’s murder. Nur appeared at Southern Derbyshire Magistrates’ Court via videolink, speaking only to confirm his identity with the help of a Somali interpreter. He has been remanded in custody and will next appear before Derby Crown Court.
Samantha Shallow, Deputy Chief Crown Prosecutor for the East Midlands, said, “After reviewing the evidence submitted by Derbyshire Constabulary, we have authorised a murder charge in connection with the death of 37-year-old Gurvinder Johal.”
A second man in his 30s, who was also arrested in connection with the case, has since been released with no further action.
