Family's Nightmare

The heartbroken family of a woman who died after being mutilated in the street have talked about the nightmare they're living through.

Mother-of-two Geeta Aulakh died after suffering serious head injuries in Greenford. She'd also had her hand severed. Geeta's sister and parents shed tears today as they faced the cameras for the first time. They said the whole family were struggling to come to terms with their loss.

This morning, an 18-year-old man appeared in court charged with murder. But the police inquiry continues this evening.
