A dad has appeared in court charged with murdering his estranged wife and their two children – over 12 years after their deaths in London’s East End.

Mohammed Abdul Shakur, 45, appeared at Barkingside Magistrates’ Court yesterday charged with three counts of murder.

He was extradited back to the UK from India, where he has been imprisoned for immigration offences since 2012.

Juli Begum, 26, was found dead in bed along with her daughters at their home in Whitechapel in January 2007.

A concerned relative had alerted police, who found all three victims inside a bedroom. They had been strangled and beaten to death.

Police discovered Thanha Khanum, six, dead from a head injury while five-year-old Anika Khanum had been strangled.

The Metropolitan Police said at the time that no forced entry took place at the address as they tried to trace Shakur.

Since you are here

Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
