David Quartey, 21, was arrested on Wednesday on suspicion of murdering Dr Victoria Anyetei outside her home as she left for work on August 14.

Quartey, of Humber Road, Dartford, Kent, was charged late on Friday night with her murder and appeared on Saturday morning at Sittingbourne Magistrates' Court.

He will appear at Maidstone Crown Court on October 12.

Divorced consultant paediatrician Dr Anyetei, 54, was found fatally stabbed in Teynham Road, Dartford, as she set off for work to St Thomas' Hospital in central London.

Her body was found in her silver Toyota Avensis by her son, a 20-year-old university student.

Dr Anyetei, a devout Christian, had been a doctor for around 20 years.

She moved to England from Ghana in 1996 and had lived in Dartford for eight years, along with her son. Her former husband lives in Ghana.

Her brother, Dr Jonathan Anyetei, 61, a dental surgeon from Stevenage, Hertfordshire, described her as a "dedicated mother and loving sister".
