On August 2, the deaths of Louise Nash and her mother Jillu Nash, 43, were found at a house in Heath Estate, Great Waldingfield, Sudbury.

Officers arrested a 46-year-old male at the scene, took him to the hospital for treatment of significant injuries, and kept him under arrest while they were there.
According to Suffolk Police, he was taken to the Martlesham Police Investigation Centre on Saturday night in order to be questioned.

Peter Nash, of Heath Estate, Great Waldingfield, was charged with two charges of murder, according to a Sunday update from the force. He is scheduled to appear in Ipswich Magistrates’ Court on Monday.

An inquest into the deaths, which opened on Friday, heard that the property was the home address of Jillu and Peter Nash who were husband and wife and lived at the property “with their 12-year-old daughter Louise who had severe learning difficulties”.

Police said a Home Office post-mortem examination concluded that Mrs Nash’s cause of death was pressure on the neck while her daughter’s cause of death was a stab wound to the abdomen.
