A man has appeared in court charged with the murder of a man in 2021.

Zaheer Abbas, 44, was arrested on Thursday in connection with the death of Amjad Hussain in Watford, Hertfordshire, three years ago.

Mr Abbas, who appeared at Luton Crown Court, did not give a plea and there was no application for bail.

He was remanded in custody until his next court appearance on 11 September.

Mr Hussain's son, Husnein Amjad, was sentenced to life imprisonment for his father's murder in December 2023.

He was ordered to serve a minimum of 17 years.

Hertfordshire Police said it had charged Mr Abbas, of Weldale Street in Reading, after "further intelligence" became known.

He will appear in court again on 11 September.
