Murder Investigations Launched Following Deaths in Raunds and Huntingdon

Two separate murder investigations are underway following the deaths of men discovered in their flats in the UK. In Raunds, a man in his 70s was found dead in a flat above a hairdresser's, prompting police to arrest a 38-year-old woman on suspicion of murder and increase patrols in the area to reassure the community. In Huntingdon, the death of 59-year-old Hamid Tawaab, also known as Michael Vidale, initially reported in January, is now being treated as murder after forensic post-mortem results. A 35-year-old woman from Huntingdon has been arrested and is in custody. Police urge anyone with information, particularly those in the respective local areas, to come forward while emphasizing the cases are considered isolated incidents. Tributes to Mr. Tawaab highlight his intelligence, warmth, and passion for cricket, with his family expressing shock and sadness over the circumstances of his death.
