A woman has been arrested on suspicion of murder after the death of a 69-year-old woman was linked to a missing Rolex watch.
A 66-year-old woman is now in custody after police previously said they believed Jennifer Abbott’s death in north London could be linked to the diamond-encrusted piece.
Detective Inspector Barry Hart said: “Our deepest sympathies are with the victim’s loved ones who are being supported by specialist officers at this time.
“We thank the local community for their patience as we continue to investigate this shocking crime. This arrest marks a significant step forward. There are several lines of enquiry ongoing, and we are working hard to establish the exact circumstances of this incident.
“Locals can expect to see an increased police presence in the area while we conduct our enquires.”
