Suspect Charged in Widdecombe Murder as Motive Probed

A 28-year-old man, Joshua Kerry of Rotherham, has been charged with the murder of former Conservative minister Ann Widdecombe and will appear at Westminster Magistrates' Court. Counter Terrorism Policing say determining the motive, including any political motive, remains an active line of inquiry; Kerry was initially arrested on suspicion of murder and later on suspicion of terrorism-related offenses. Widdecombe, 78, was found dead at her Devon home on July 9 with serious injuries. The investigation is ongoing and not seeking others in connection with the case, with tributes paid by political figures.
