A German man accused of stabbing a Nottingham student to death has pleaded not guilty to murder.

The body of 20-year-old Matthew Pyke was found at his flat in North Sherwood Street in September 2008.

David Heiss, 21, from Limburg, Hesse, entered his plea during an appearance at Nottingham Crown Court.

Mr Pyke, originally from Stowmarket in Suffolk, ran a web forum for a computer game and had been due to start a degree course at Nottingham Trent University.

The trial is due to start on 27 April.
