A male suspect linked to London’s quadruple stabbing incident was further remanded until July following his second court appearance on Tuesday.

 The accused Joshua Jacques, 28, was charged with killing a Jamaican woman and three other persons at a house in South-east London on April 25.

Reports outlined that Police were called at about 1:40 am on Monday, April 25, to reports of a disturbance at a home in Delaford Road in Bermondsey.

Following this, officers forced entry and found four people suffering from stab injuries.

Despite the efforts of emergency services, all four people were pronounced dead at the scene.

In addition, a Jamaican National Health Service worker, 64-year-old Dolet Hill, was listed among the victims of a quadruple stabbing at a south London home in the United Kingdom.

The other victims include her partner 68-year-old Denton Burke, 27-year-old Samantha Drummonds and her 45-year-old mother Tanysha Drummonds.

Meanwhile, a plea and trial preparation hearing has been set for July 19.
