The girlfriend is reported to have been holding a gun in her hands as she and her boyfriend lay in a pool of blood in the flat.
A source who spoke on condition of anonymity told CITE that the couple was discovered by the man’s roommate who was away for the weekend.
“The boy’s roommate arrived early in the morning. He knocked on the door but there was no response. He tried to unlock the door with his keys but there was a key hanging in the hole from the inside. He then forced open the door and walked into the couple lying in a pool of blood with the girl holding a gun in her hands,” said the source.
The girl whose name could not be established is from Barham Green suburb and used to visit his boyfriend at the flat regularly.
Efforts to get a comment from the police were fruitless as they were not answering their phones.
