Death of three in Norwich being treated as suspicious

Police in Norfolk have announced that they're treating the death of a woman and two girls in a house in Norwich as suspicious.

Kanticha Sukpengpanao, 36, Jasmin Kuczynska, 12, and Natasha Kuczynska, eight, were discovered with stab wounds to their necks on Friday.

A 45-year old man, Bartlomiej Kuczynski, was also found dead at the scene with similar neck stab wounds, but this death is not being treated as murder.

It is understood that officers are not looking for anyone else in connection with the killings at the house in Allan Bedford Crescent, Costessey.

DCI Chris Burgess, of the Norfolk and Suffolk major investigation team, previously told reporters:

I recognise the shock and upset this incident will cause in the local community and we will have increased patrols in the area across the weekend. I would urge anyone with any concerns to speak to these officers.

Police had visited the property on 14 December in relation to a missing person inquiry. It is understood that a man called 999 from the property at about 6am on Friday but police were not dispatched. Officers did visit the property later after a member of the public alerted them again at about 7am. The incident has been referred to the Independent Office of Police Conduct (IOPC).
