Simon Levy Remanded After Old Bailey Hearing in Sex Worker Murder Case

A plea hearing is set for November 26 with a provisional trial next June.

Overview

  • Prosecutors told the court CCTV shows Levy meeting Sheryl Wilkins shortly after midnight and walking with her toward the B&M car park on Tottenham High Road.
  • Patrolling officers found Wilkins face down and covered by a jacket hours later, with bruises and scratches noted at the scene.
  • The post-mortem has not established a cause of death, and the prosecution indicated potential throat reconstruction work as they explore possible drowning.
  • Levy also faces charges over a January 21 incident in Haringey, including GBH with intent, non-fatal strangulation and two counts of rape of a 35-year-old woman.
  • Bail was refused as Levy appeared by video link from HMP Belmarsh, and police say the investigation continues while appealing for information quoting reference 1721/24AUG.
