20-year-old man charged with murder and attempted murder after Bournemouth stabbing

A 20-year-old Croydon has been charged with murder and attempted murder over the stabbing of Amie Gray and another woman on a Bournemouth beach last Friday, Dorset Police said.

A statement from the force said: “Following detailed inquiries, led by detectives from the Major Crime Investigation Team (MCIT), 20-year-old Nasen Saadi from Croydon was arrested on the evening of Wednesday May 29 2024.

“He has now been charged with murder and attempted murder, and is due to appear at Poole Magistrates’ Court on Saturday June 1 2024.”

Detective Superintendent Richard Dixey, of MCIT, said: “Our thoughts remain with the family and loved ones of Amie Gray, as well as the woman who was seriously injured, and they have been updated with this latest development in our investigation.

“This matter has been the subject of an extensive investigation and we have now consulted with the Crown Prosecution Service, which has authorised the charges of murder and attempted murder.

“This means the case will now be the subject of active court proceedings and it is vital that the justice system is allowed to follow its course.

“It is also important to stress that there should be no further commentary or sharing of information online or on social media that could potentially prejudice these court proceedings.”
