In the real world the first thing the police do is try to identify the victim and how they died. Strictly speaking I do not think it could be said that Anya was murdered, she died from an infection. Of course other charges could arise from that.
And it gets worse. Mad Medic John has been cremated. How will they ever prove he was murdered now?? Somebody should tell Vic ad Robert. The Renal thief has lost his power of blackmail now. In the real world even if a PM was carried out the body would not be cremated if a murder was suspected. The defence team of a person charged would have the right to demand an independent PM. Another mistake by the Soap Polis
