Shay Kang’s body was found in Rowley Regis on Monday, West Midlands Police said.

Jaskirat Kaur, also known as Jasmine Kang, was arrested by police on the same day.

The 33-year-old will appear before Wolverhampton Magistrates Court later today.

Detective Inspector Dan Jarratt, who is leading the investigation, said: “Our thoughts remain with Shay’s family and friends.

“Her tragic death has had a profound impact on those who knew her as well as the wider community.

“We ask that they are left to grieve in private as our enquiries continue.”
