A man has been charged with murder after the body of his wife was found inside a fridge in a west London house earlier this month.

Paul Dalton, 34, was taken into custody at Heathrow Airport yesterday, after arriving on a flight into the UK.

Scotland Yard said last night that he had been charged with the murder of Tae Dui Dalton, on or before May 23.

Mr Dalton, a teacher at a language school, is in custody at a south London police station, and will appear in court today.

The dismembered body of Korean-born Mrs Dalton was found by Mr Dalton's father on June 8.

Paul Dalton had been missing since he spoke to his family on June 7.
