Police investigating the discovery of two bodies at a house in Nottingham last month have said they are satisfied no crime occurred at the address.

Officers were called at 11.04am on Tuesday May 21 after concerns were raised for the welfare of the occupants of a property in Hartley Road, Radford.

The bodies of two women, believed to have lain undiscovered for some time, were found inside the end-of-terrace property.

In a statement issued on Tuesday, Detective Chief Inspector Ruby Burrow said: “Since this tragic discovery, we have been working hard to establish the circumstances surrounding these deaths.

“Officers are now satisfied no crime has occurred and so the matter has been referred to the coroner.

“Our thoughts remain with those affected by this distressing case.”
