The body of the former Conservative MP and minister was found on July 9 at her home in the village of Haytor in the county of Devon in southwest England. aktuality.sk ↗
Kerry comes from Rotherham and was detained on July 11. The charge came after more than a week in custody. According to available information, he is expected to appear before the court on Tuesday, July 21. The case has thus reached its first major legal stage, as the investigation focused on a specific suspect after the body was found. Spiegel.de ↗
Widdecombe was known as a right-wing politician, a former Conservative MP and later a figure associated with Brexit and the Reform UK party. Several reports also recall her tough stances on migration, which made her one of the more prominent and controversial figures in British politics. svet.sme.sk ↗
