A post-mortem examination gave the cause of death as stab wounds to the chest and abdomen.

The 22-year-old, of Kendal Way in Cambridge, is also charged with conspiracy to cause grievous bodily harm with intent, toward an unknown male, and threatening another with a knife or bladed article.

He was remanded in custody to appear at the Old Bailey on Wednesday, May 20.
