Police have recovered the body of a man who was wanted in connection with a fatal stabbing in Stratford.

Yolanda Saldana Feliz, 53, was stabbed to death inside a property in Windmill Lane on Sunday, 23 October. Another woman was also stabbed and taken to hospital with serious injuries.

Detectives issued an appeal for help finding 38-year-old Miguel Angel Alvarez Florentino, who was believed to have known both victims.

They were in the vicinity of Blaker Road on Friday, 28 October when they saw the body of a man in a river. Officers retrieved the body and he was pronounced dead at the scene.

“The death is being treated as unexpected, but is not believed to be suspicious,” said a spokesperson for the Metropolitan Police.

“While formal identification is yet to take place, they are confident it is the body of Miguel Angel Alvarez Florentino. His next of kin have been informed.”

Yolanda’s family has been made aware of the development and are still being supported by specialist officers.
