00:10unit since jumping from Battersea Bridge into the River Thames last month. The 54-year-old was the
00:15subject of an international manhunt after fleeing Colombia last year. She's accused of murdering

00:26Her two alleged victims were 14-year-old Inés de Badu and 13-year-old Emilia Ferreiro.

00:50water and was later held in a secure unit at St Charles Mental Health Hospital in Notting Hill

01:06hearing at Westminster Magistrates Court on Tuesday.
