A judge's daughter was allegedly stabbed to death by her 'angry' partner, who then triggered a gas explosion while trying to blow up their home in north London, a court has heard.
The incident occurred at a property in north London, although the exact location has not been disclosed due to the ongoing court case.
Prosecutors told the court that the victim's partner, who cannot be named, stabbed her multiple times before attempting to blow up the house using a gas cooker.
According to reports, the explosion caused significant damage to the property, but fortunately, no one else was injured in the incident.
The Met Office had issued a weather warning for the north London area at the time, citing strong winds and heavy rain, which may have contributed to the gas explosion.
