Joanna Yeates murder charge

A 32-YEAR-OLD Dutch man is to appear in court this morning after police charged him with the murder of Joanna Yeates, the landscape architect who was found dead on Christmas Day after going missing more than a week earlier.

Avon and Somerset Police said Vincent Tabak, who lived next door to Yeates in Bristol, will appear at the city’s magistrates court today.

Tabak, an architectural engineer, was arrested on Thursday following a televised appeal by Yeates’ parents for anyone with information about their daughter’s death to come forward.
