An overnight murder charge, and a remand to magistrates, is the start of the case. It does not describe the evidence, and it does not say Yahya has entered a plea. Yong is dead, and what a court does with the charge is still ahead.

Muner Yahya, 28, of Selsey Road, is charged with murder in the death of Yong Deng Joh Yong, 37. West Midlands Police said Yahya was charged overnight and remanded to appear before magistrates in Birmingham on Wednesday.

Yong was stabbed at a property on Selsey Road in Edgbaston on Nov. 5. Officers were called at about 8:30 p.m. His family said he was a man of God and a beloved son and brother.

Police said the investigation is continuing. No plea had been reported Wednesday.

All defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
