Eva Rausing death: Husband charged with burial delay

The husband of dead millionairess Eva Rausing has been charged with delaying her burial.

Mrs Rausing, one of Britain's richest women, was found dead in the bedroom of the couple's house in Cadogan Place, Belgravia, on 9 July.

Hans Kristian Rausing, 49, has been charged with preventing the lawful and decent burial of her body.

Mr Rausing is to appear at West London Magistrates' Court on Wednesday.

The Rausing family made billions from the Tetra Pak carton firm.

Police are treating the death of Mrs Rausing as "unexplained" and a post-mortem examination held last week failed to establish a formal cause of death.
