A 21-year-old woman has appeared in court charged with the murder of 41-year-old Bernard Jason Evans of Ammanford.

Mr Evans died following an incident at his Pantyffynnon Road home during the early hours of Tuesday.

Maxine Violet Williams, the daughter of Mr Evans' partner, appeared before magistrates on Friday morning accused of the murder.

Wearing a dark blue jacket over a green t-shirt, 21-year-old Williams, of Gwscwm Road in Pembrey, wept throughout the ten-minute hearing.

No bail application was submitted by defence solicitor David Elvy.

The defendant will next appear at Swansea crown court on Tuesday.
