Millionaire antiques dealer, 55, ‘strangled his seven-year-old daughter to death at their £1m home’
A wealthy antiques dealer allegedly strangled his seven-year-old daughter at their £1million home, a court heard today.
Robert Peters is accused of trying to strangle schoolgirl Sophia, leaving her critically injured in Raynes Park, south-west London, on the morning of November 3, it is claimed.
Peters, 55, was arrested and charged with attempted murder as doctors battled to save his daughter’s life in hospital.
The charge is set to be upgraded to murder after Sophia died on the morning of 4 November, the Old Bailey heard today.
Three times married Peters, who runs an antiques business with his twin brother Richard in Kensington, didn’t appear in court for the brief administrative hearing.
It is understood Peters lived with Sophia’s Thai mum Krittiya in Raynes Park. He is said to have business assets of £1.3million.
