“The postmortem has not been scheduled yet but it is unlikely to take place before tomorrow,” a Scotland Yard spokesman tells RadarOnline.com exclusively. “In the case of a murder it can be done within hours but this is not the case so tomorrow or even Monday is more likely in these circumstances.”

In an earlier statement to RadarOnline.com, the authorities said:

“Police were called by London Ambulance Service to an address in Camden Square NW1 shortly before 16.05hrs today, Saturday 23 July, following reports of a woman found deceased. On arrival officers found the body of a 27-year-old female who was pronounced dead at the scene. Enquiries continue into the circumstances of the death. At this early stage it is being treated as unexplained.”
