Man bailed in French students' murder probe
A seventh person arrested in Ramsgate by detectives investigating the murder of two French students has been released on bail.
The 19-year-old man was arrested at an address in the town on Wednesday on suspicion of murder.
A Metropolitan Police spokesman said he had been bailed to return to a police station in November.
Laurent Bonomo and Gabriel Ferez, both 23, were stabbed hundreds of times in a frenzied and prolonged attack at a rented bedsit in New Cross, south east London.
The badly burned bodies were found after an explosion at the building on June 29.
Two men have previously been remanded in custody over the deaths.
Daniel Sonnex, 23, of Peckham, and Nigel Farmer, 33, of no fixed address, have been charged with murder and perverting the course of justice.
Mr Bonomo and Mr Ferez were in the second year of masters degrees at the Clermont-Ferrand Polytech in the Auvergne region of central France.
Both were nearing the end of a three-month research placement studying DNA at Imperial College London when they were murdered.
