Memorial event held for murdered India Chipchase

  • Video report by ITV News Anglia's Stuart Leithes

A memorial netball tournament has been held for India Chipchase, who was murdered in Northampton last year.

The 20-year-old was on a night out when she was approached by Edward Tenniswood and taken back to his flat in a taxi.

After finding her in a drunken state Tenniswood had promised to get her home safely- instead he lured her back to his squalid house in Stanley Road where he strangled her.

The middle-aged fantasist was found guilty of raping and murdering India Chipchase and sentenced to life in prison with a minimum of 30 years.

India was a talented netball player and the special tournament was held at her old school in the village of Pitsford.

The tournament is also a fundraising event for the Cheltenham Guardians group which was formed in the Gloucestershire town to try and keep people safe on nights out.
