A 52-year-old woman charged with the murder of an elderly Wellington resident has received continued name suppression.

Helen Gregory, who was 79, was found dead in her Khandallah home on 24 January.

Her alleged killer was arrested on 11 February.

She appeared again in the High Court on Friday and is yet to make a plea. She will next appear in court in April.

Gregory's obituary, published in The Post, said the 79-year-old was a dearly loved mother, mother-in-law and treasured grandmother.
