Heartbreaking news as the jury in a tragic baby death case has been discharged. Little Sophia Kelemen, only six months old, was on holiday with her family in Tenby when disaster struck. A car in a multi-storey car park hit her pram, and despite a rapid airlift to the University Hospital of Wales in Cardiff, she couldn’t be saved.
Flaviu Naghi, 34, facing charges of causing death by dangerous driving and alternatively, by careless driving under the influence, denied all allegations. The incident happened back in January 2024. The trial began this week in Swansea Crown Court but has been halted as the jury was discharged without presenting any evidence.
Naghi, previously from Wigan but now living in Luton, has been granted bail again. Judge Catherine Richards acknowledged the jury’s patience throughout this ordeal.
This case is an important reminder of the need for road safety and vigilance, particularly in crowded areas. Our thoughts are with the Kelemen family during this unimaginably tough time. Let’s stay alert on the roads to keep each other safe!
