Tuesday's death was the sixth murder investigation to be launched in London in four days and the 66th this year.

Indeed. BBC publishes everything about the victim but no name or picture of the perpetrator. Government and media are never going to stop protecting them.

They don’t tend to publish names of arrestees or suspects in the UK, AFAIK.

It would be illegal in the U.K. to mention any more details.

Correct. Suspects aren’t named unless and until charged and produced to court.

After which it will still be illegal. Native British people are not allowed to correctly identify those who are killing their people and raping their children.

Yup, it doesn’t take an expert to surmise so much more given the blandness of the article.

I was going to post this myself but you beat me to it.
When it wants to, this sort of terrible crime sparks outrage at the BBC.
Such as this recent example not anywhere so near BBC HQ:

When the victims are poor old White folks trying to get by in vibrant London, it's a different story.
Typical example of the BBC at work.
