A TEENAGER again appeared in court today accused of killing his father.

Luke Onyett, 18, was arrested after the body of Michael Onyett, 49, was discovered in a flat in Cobham Street, Gravesend, on Monday, December 22.

A post-mortem examination revealed Mr Onyett, from Cross Lane East, Gravesend, died from multiple stab wounds.

The teenager, from Oak Road, Gravesend, appeared before Chatham magistrates on Boxing Day and again today when he spoke only to confirm his name, age and address.

He was remanded in custody until Friday (January 2) when he will appear before a judge at Maidstone Crown Court.

A 47-year-old man also arrested in connection with the murder has been released on police bail pending further enquiries.
