Cabdiraxmaan is due to appear at Southern Derbyshire Magistrates’ Court on Thursday.

A second man, in his 30s, who was arrested in connection with the incident, has been released with no further action, Derbyshire Constabulary said.

Samanatha Shallow, deputy chief crown prosecutor in the East Midlands, said: «Mr Johal died after a stabbing inside Lloyd’s bank in St Peter’s Street, Derby, after 2.30pm on Tuesday 6 May.

«Our thoughts remain with the family of Mr Johal at this time.»

Ms Shallow has warned the public against speculating about the incident online.

Mr Johal, who was said to have been known to friends as Danny, was pronounced dead at the scene after the emergency services were called at around 2.35pm.
