A teenage girl was charged with murder in Australia on Monday for killing an Indian student she had met through a dating app.
Jamie Lee Dolheguy, 18, was arrested last week over an attack on Maulin Rathod, 25, at her home in Sunbury last Monday. The attack eventually led to Rathod’s death in a hospital the following day.
Dolheguy sat impassively with her head slightly down as she appeared before the Melbourne Magistrates Court via a video link from custody. The teenager was charged with attempted murder, intentionally causing serious injury and recklessly causing serious injury after her arrest, and also faced a charge of murder.
She was remanded to custody to appear before the court again on November 19.
Rathod had arrived in Australia four years ago on a student visa to study accountancy.
