A 26-year-old man accused of murdering a teenage mother has appeared in court via a video link.

Ashfaq Khan, aged 26, of New Cateaton Street, Bury, has pleaded not guilty to the murder of Lynn Savery. He is due to stand trial in March.

The body of Miss Savery, aged 19, was found next to her baby daughter at her terraced home in Chelsea Avenue, Radcliffe, in September last year.
