Women arrested over triple murder

Keith Cowell, his son Matthew and a third man were shot dead

Two women have been arrested in London in connection with the deaths of three men shot at a house in Hertfordshire.

One woman, aged in her 20s, was arrested on Saturday and bailed after questioning on suspicion of assisting an offender.

A second woman in her 40s was arrested on Monday and faced similar questions.

Three men have been charged with killing of Keith Cowell, 57, his 17-year-old son Matthew and 33-year-old Tony Dulieu in Bishop's Stortford.

Kevan Thakrar, 20, of Lomond Way, Stevenage, appeared before Stevenage magistrates last Thursday, charged with three counts of murder and two of attempted murder.

Atul Thakrar, 46, of the same address, was charged with assisting an offender. Both were remanded until 21 September.

A third man faces drugs charges but has not been named by police.

Two women, Mr Cowell's 54-year-old sister and Matthew's 23-year-old girlfriend, were badly hurt in the incident at the Cowell family home.

A three-year-old girl, in the property at the time, was unhurt.

Mr Dulieu had been living in Billericay in Essex.
