Police have released an image of the mother-of-two who was stabbed to death at her Uxbridge home.

Emily Munemo, 42, was found inside the property in Collingwood Road on Friday (January 30).

Gibson Mazikana, 41, of Reid Close, Hayes, has since appeared in court charged with her murder. He has yet to enter a plea.

A second man, 35, was arrested in Hayes on the day of the attack, also on suspicion of murder. He was bailed until mid-March pending further enquiries.

Care worker Ms Munemo lived in Harare, Zimbabwe, before moving to the UK and studying at Oxford Brookes University, according to her Facebook page.

Tributes were left with flowers at the gates to her home after the attack.

Police have sought to reassure the public, as two murders and a series of alleged attack have occurred in the borough within a single week.
