The man charged with murdering a Cambridge woman yesterday will be held in a mental health facility.
The 42-year-old man appeared in Hamilton District Court this morning and has been granted name suppression.
The identity of the victim was also suppressed.
Community magistrate Terry Bourke told the accused he would be sent to Waikato Hospital's Henry Bennett Centre to determine if he was fit to stand trial.
He is due to appear again in the High Court of Hamilton on 23 August.
