Teenager appears in court over Scottish woman’s murder in Mauritius

A teenager has made a second court appearance in connection with the murder of a Scottish woman in Mauritius.

Janice Farman, 47, was found dead by police at her home in Albion on the Indian Ocean island at around 1am on Friday July 7.

Her 10-year-old autistic son was in the property at the time.

Anish Soneea, 18, appeared in court in Port Louis on Friday and was remanded until July 27, a Mauritius Police Force spokesman said.

He first appeared in court on July 14.

Earlier this week Ravish Rao Fakhoo and Kamlesh Mansingh, both 25, made a second court appearance and were remanded until July 25.

Police said that a provisional charge of murder has been lodged against the pair and no plea has been entered at this stage.

Ms Farman, originally thought to be from Clydebank, West Dunbartonshire, was working as managing director for data capture firm PECS Data Services in Mauritius before she was murdered
