Two people have been arrested in connection with the fatal stabbing of a man in Gravesend.

Kamaljit Singh Kolan died after being found wounded at the entrance to Gordon Park after reports of a fight on 10 July.

On Wednesday Kent Police said they had arrested a man and woman in connection with the murder.

A force spokesman said: "The 36-year-old woman and 39-year-old man were arrested at their homes in Gravesend at 0430 BST this morning."

She said the pair are currently in custody in police stations in Kent.

Witness appeal

Officers were called to Gordon Promenade, off Commercial Road just after 2015 BST on the night of the incident after receiving reports of a fight involving three men, all described as Asian.

When they arrived they found Mr Kolan, who was from Sidcup, seriously injured.

The 31-year-old was taken to Darent Valley Hospital, where he later died.

Officers believe many people may have witnessed the incident because it happened in daylight near a park.

They are still appealing for anyone who saw what happened to contact them.
