A belated Happy Diwali to all the Hindus, Sikhs and Jains across Leicestershire - I hope you enjoyed the celebrations on Belgrave Road last night.

Leicestershire Police have estimated there were about 40,000 people there.

To start with this morning the news that a man's body was found in a Leicester car park at the weekend.

The 40-year-old was found on Saturday near an industrial unit in Charter Street - he's since been named at Promise Ndlovu.

Three men, aged 33, 55 and 44 have been arrested on suspicion of his murder.
