    Murder inquiry launched after 10-year-old girl found dead in ‘devastating’ incident

    Following the discovery of a 10-year-old child dead inside a Surrey home, neighbours have spoken of their disbelief.

    Following the finding, a murder investigation was opened. On Thursday, just before 3 a.m., police were called to the Hammond Road address due to a worry for their safety.

    According to Surrey Police, the girl’s family has been notified and is receiving help from specially trained police.

    Everyone in the region is’shocked’ by the tragedy, Amjad Ali, 47, told MailOnline.

    The earliest I was aware of anything was around 3.30 this morning, he claimed. As I had taken my wife on vacation and we were still awake, my kid peeked out the window and reported that there were many police officers on the road.

    Then, an officer knocked on the door and inquired about the family, but we don’t really know them, the homeowner said.

    Everyone is startled, and this is a very wonderful neighbourhood, Mr. Ali continued. Before I saw it on the news, I was unaware that a young girl was involved. I simply cannot believe that this occurred in my neighbourhood.

    According to Surrey Police, the girl’s family has been notified and is receiving help from specially trained police.

    On Thursday night, there were police officers outside the house and a cordon was in place.

    “This is a devastating incident, and our officers are working hard to develop a picture of what happened,” said Detective Chief Inspector Debbie White.

    “At this time, we are not looking to name anyone else in connection with our investigation. We have identified a number of people we would like to meet with as part of our enquiries. There is no reason for us to think that the general population is at risk.

    The police presence in Hammond Road is substantial and will continue to be so over the next few days. We recognise that the police presence may be unsettling some locals, and we appreciate their cooperation as we carry out our inquiry. As soon as we are able, we will send more updates.
