A 36-year-old woman, named as Kanticha Noon, was discovered with stab wounds on Friday.

Cops confirmed on Sunday Bartlomiej and the girls’ aunt both died of stab wounds to the neck.

The force today said the sisters also died after being stabbed.

Detective Chief Inspector Chris Burgess, who is leading the investigation, today said: “We understand how incredibly shocking this incident is for all involved and for the wider community and that this latest update adds to the sense of heartbreak.

“thoughts are with the family of the those found at the property grieving such a traumatic loss.

“We would like to thank the community for their help and will continue to provide reassurance patrols in the area. A cordon will remain on at the address whilst we finalise our detailed examination of the scene.”

A pile of floral tributes, and two unicorn toys, had been left a short distance from the house in Costessey, near Norwich, by Monday.

The items were left as the house remained taped off by police and with a number of marked vehicles still at the scene.

One tribute read: “Jasmine, you were such a sweet, caring girl, yourself and your sister didn’t deserve to have your lives taken away.

“You would always be smiling in primary school. Fly high beautiful girls.”

Another said: “You will be missed. I’m sorry to whoever was in the family and is going through it. Sorry Jasmin.”

Kanticha ran UK-based kid’s clothing store Malishop with her sister.

Norfolk Police said they are not looking for anyone else in connection with the deaths.

Cops also confirmed they have referred themselves to the police watchdog, after not responding to a call to the home earlier that morning.

The force said it had received a 999 call from the home not long before the bodies were found.

Sources confirmed that Mr Kuczynski was the man who made the call at 6am, which police failed to send officers out on.

However, officers were not deployed until a second call from a member of the public shortly before 7am.

Providing details on the phone call, Charmaine Arbouin, IOPC regional director, said: “Norfolk Constabulary established that the man had made a 999 call to the force shortly before 6am on 19 January.

“During that call the man expressed concerns for his own mental state saying he was confused.

“He was advised to seek medical advice and police did not attend.

“At around 7am the force received a call from a dog walker concerned for the welfare of those within the home.

“Officers attended shortly after and, tragically, found the man, a woman and two children dead.”

Norfolk Police also said it will investigate and will be examining if the contact its officers had with the man was “appropriate and in line with force policy, training and procedures”.

It also referred itself to the watchdog for attending the home on December 14 in connection with a missing person enquiry.

Their mother was at work as a caretaker when the four were found, according to Kanticha’s best friend Naty Wathanakul.

She told how the aunt arrived in the UK on December 27 and was apparently due to go home next month.

Describing Kanticha as a “caring” woman, Naty told The Mirror: “She loved her nieces, I always saw their pictures together.

“She is a single woman, no boyfriend, no husband, that’s why she spent most of her time with those lovely girls.”
