A woman and an eight-year-old girl found dead at a home in Greater Manchester have been identified by police as Martina Karos and child Eleni Edwards.
The pair were found after emergency services were called to South Radford Street in Salford at 10:30 BST on Monday.
A neighbour later said they were a “loving mother” and daughter who lived alone at the address.
Det Ch Insp Charlotte Whalley said: “My thoughts, and the thoughts of the entire investigation team remain with the family of the Martina and Eleni.”
She added: “It is such a tragic loss of life, and our main priority is keeping their loved ones updated throughout the investigation.”
Greater Manchester Police said there were no suspicious circumstances and officers were not looking for anyone else in connection with the deaths.
The neighbour said the mother was half-Polish and half-Italian and had lived at the address for about two years.
The mother is believed to have been a full-time carer for disabled Elani.
