Man on Matalan murders charge
A MAN has appeared in court charged with the murder of two Matalan workers.
Andrew Patrick Saunders, 20, is accused of killing Zoe Morgan, 21, and Lee Simmons, 33.
Window dresser Zoe and shop assistant Lee were found dead near the fashion chain’s city centre store in Cardiff on Wednesday morning.
Appearing before Cardiff magistrates yesterday, Saunders spoke only to confirm his name, age and address.
Prosecutor Monique McKevitt told the bench: “The matter can only be tried at crown court.
“I ask you to remand him in custody given the serious nature of the offence.”
Saunders, who wore a dark grey polo shirt and jeans, told the court he was of “no fixed address”.
He was remanded in custody and will appear at Cardiff Crown Court on Monday. Pictures: FAMEFLYNET;GOFF;MAGICMOMENTSUK
