Murder charge after Mee Kuen Chong's body found in Devon
Devon and Cornwall PoliceA woman has been charged with the murder of Mee Kuen Chong, who went missing from London and was found dead more than 200 miles away in Devon.
Jemma Mitchell, 36, of Brondesbury Park, Brent, appeared at Willesden Magistrates' Court on Saturday and will appear at the Old Bailey on Tuesday.
The body of Ms Chong was discovered in woodland in Salcombe on 27 June after going missing earlier in the month.
A post-mortem has not determined her cause of death, police said.
The 67-year-old, also known as Deborah and originally from Malaysia, had been living in Wembley for more than 30 years.
She was reported missing on 11 June.
Her death was initially treated as unexplained by Devon and Cornwall Police. However, further inquiries led to a murder investigation being launched by the Met.
