London couple admit burning French nanny’s body
Designer Sabrina Kouider, 34, and her partner Ouissem Medouni, 40, appeared in court for a brief hearing ahead of their five-week trial for murder in March.
The charred remains of Sophie Lionnet, 21, originally from Troyes in northeast France, were found in the garden at a house in southwest London on September 20.
Kouider, who wore a white shirt and black blazer, appeared tearful as she sat in the dock and used a French interpreter, the Press Association news agency reported.
Medouni, who was in a burgundy sweatshirt, paused for a short time before entering his guilty plea.
The two are due to stand trial from March 19.
Lionnet’s death shocked London’s au pair community.
