A man accused of murdering a woman in Bradford two years ago has been remanded in custody.

Rizwana Kauser, who was 42, died in hospital two days after being found unconscious at an address in Kensington Street on 15 August 2023.

Detectives launched a murder investigation after inquiries suggested there were suspicious circumstances surrounding her death, a West Yorkshire Police spokesperson said.
