Two people have been arrested on suspicion of murder after a Kilkenny man's death in a south-west London flat was linked to an earlier rape inquiry.

According to the BBC, Adrian Murphy, 43, was discovered in Battersea on 4 June.

A post-mortem failed to determine how he died; items of his had been stolen from the flat.
