Anita Mukhey (66) was stabbed by the accused in Burnt Oak Broadway on May 9.


She worked part-time in the National Health Service as a medical secretary.


The police reached the spot on reports of stabbing. But, the victim succumbed to her knife wounds.

"Officers, London Ambulance Service (LAS) and London's Air Ambulance (HEMS) all attended the scene, where a 66-year-old woman was treated for knife wounds. Sadly, despite the best efforts of emergency services, she died at the scene. Her family have been informed," the police statement read.

The accused, Jalal Debella (22) was arrested on suspicion of murder in the Colindale area on the same day of the incident.
