A man has been charged with the murder of his daughter whose body was found in a suitcase.

Mahmod Babakir Mahmod, 51, from Mitcham was charged with the murder of Banaz Mammod Babakir Agha, who police believe may have been the victim of an honour killing.

Police discovered her body in a suitcase in Birmingham two months after Mohamad Marid Hama, 30, from Uffington Road, South Norwood, was also charged with murder.

Banaz, 20, was last seen on January 23 in Cricket Green, Mitcham, at around 5.50 pm. Her remains were discovered in May in a suitcase buried in the garden of a house.

After the discovery her uncle Ari Mahmod Babakir Aga, 50, from Mitcham, was charged with the murder of his niece.

Darbaz Rasull, 24, and Pshtewan Hama, 26, from Hounslow were charged in May with perverting the court of justice.
