A man remains in custody and seven other people have been bailed as a murder investigation continues.

The arrests came after a man, 37, was found dead in Albert Carr Gardens, Streatham, on Sunday.

A post-mortem examination yesterday at Greenwich Mortuary gave the cause of death as multiple injuries.

One man, 37, remains in custody but six men, aged between 28 and 54, and a woman, 47, have been bailed until late January pending further investigation.

The victim has been identified but police are attempting trace next of kin while Homicide and Serious Crime Command officers investigate.
