The family of a woman beheaded in India have met a Foreign Office minister in a bid to find out if the government can do anything to help them see justice.

Surjit Kaur, who lived in Chatham, was killed in the Punjab region earlier this year. Two men accused of her murder might never be prosecuted after a trial there collapsed.

The 67-year-old's children met with Jeremy Brown MP on Wednesday to see what could be done to bring their mother's killers to justice.

Surjit went missing in India at the end of March. Her body was found days later, hundreds of miles from where she had been staying.

Two men had apparently admitted her murder, but a key witness withdrew their testimony and the trial was abandoned.

The Foriegn Office meeting was set up at the request of Mrs Kaur's son Baljinder Singh, who lives in Gillingham, by Gillingham and Rainham MP Rehman Chishti.

Mr Chishti said: "The minister has said he will look into what happened with the trial and has said he will put pressure on the Indian authorities to see what can be done."

The Foreign Office will report back to Mrs Kaur's family in four weeks.
