    Met Police reopens investigation into Wimbledon school crash that killed two girls

    The Metropolitan Police has reopened its investigation into the Wimbledon school crash that killed two eight-year-old girls as they celebrated the last day of the summer term.

    Nuria Sajjad and Selena Lau, both 8, died and several more were injured after the 4×4 ploughed through a fence and hit a building at the Study Prep school in Wimbledon, south-west London, on 6 July last year.

    Following the initial police investigation, it was announced that the driver, Claire Freemantle, had suffered an epileptic seizure behind the wheel and would not face criminal charges.

    However, the families of the children who died were critical of the investigation and said they remained “unconvinced” it was conducted thoroughly.

    In summer, the Met said it had launched an internal review after the families raised their concerns.

    As a result of the review, the force has now said it will reopen its investigation to further examine “a number of lines of enquiry” and provide answers to the families’ questions.

    Met Police statement:

    In a statement issued on Thursday, the Met said: “The review has identified a number of lines of enquiry that require further examination and, as such, the investigation will now be re-opened.

    “The families have been updated with this development and we will continue to meet with them to provide updates on the investigation as it progresses. We know this has been and remains a really difficult time for them. We believe this further investigative work will address all questions raised by the families affected.

    “This further investigation will be undertaken by an accredited senior investigating officer and team with experience in homicide investigations.”
