An Essex man has been charged with murder following the discovery of a body in Radlett on Thursday morning.

Warehouse worker Roland Balasko, 27, from Harlow, will appear at Chelmsford Magistrates' Court today.

A post-mortem on the dead man yesterday revealed the cause of death to be stab wounds.

He has not yet been formally identified but is believed to be a Hungarian national from Harlow.

Police in Essex were called to reports of a fight in Harlow on Wednesday.

When they arrived at the scene they found such a large quantity of blood that they immediately launched a murder inquiry.

Balasko was arrested later that day on suspicion of murder. The body was discovered the following day, at 7am, in Shenley Hill.
