Woman charged with murder after Christmas Day death

A woman has been charged with murder after the death of another woman on Christmas Day.

Stefania Glowka, 63, appeared at Swindon Magistrates' Court on Tuesday accused of killing Tamara Glowka, who was in her 80s inside a flat in Devizes, Wiltshire.

The Polish national was remanded in custody ahead of a hearing at Bristol Crown Court, where she did not appear.

She will be held in custody until she is next due to appear in court in March 2026.

Police said officers were called to reports of an assault on Christmas morning at a flat in Keepers Road.

Police said the victim, who is yet to be formally identified, was known to Stefania Glowka. She was declared dead at the scene.

A statement said: "A preliminary post-mortem has been carried out, but further information is needed to establish the cause of death."
