A 'beautiful' woman who was stabbed to death inside her home on Valentine's Day has been named.
Naomi Hunte, 41, was fatally knifed inside her flat in Congleton Grove, Greenwich on Monday evening.
Metropolitan Police officers are believed to have broken down the door to get inside the property at around 8.25pm after neighbours reported hearing a woman screaming.
A post-mortem examination took place on Wednesday at Greenwich Mortuary and gave cause of death as a single stab wound.
Andrew, 59, who lives in the block but did not want to be identified, said in the aftermath of the discovery of Ms Hunte's body: '''On the night she died someone heard her screaming and the police went in. They broke down the door and found her with wounds.''

Joy Oga, 34, paid tribute to Ms Hunte, adding: ''She was beautiful but her beauty was hidden by all the problems she had. It is heartbreaking to hear about something like this happening here.
''Last night I could not sleep, all I was doing was thinking about it. Living here is not safe.''
NHS worker Borbor Lamin Kabia, 62, had known Ms Hunte for 10 years and described her as "very quiet".
He told the Evening Standard: “She was very nice and pretty. She said she had just got a new job in the City but I still saw her hanging around.

“I can’t believe this happened if she was in trouble she could have come to me.”
A police cordon remains in place outside the home on Congleton Grove, Plumstead while homicide detectives from Metropolitan Police's Specialist Crime investigate.
So far, no arrests have been made.
A spokesperson for the force confirmed Ms Hunte's next of kin have been informed.
"Detectives continue to work to establish the circumstances of Naomi’s murder," the spokesperson said.
