‘We are loved’: Family of Indonesian girl killed in Chinatown accident thanks Singapore public
Why it matters: A 38-year-old woman faces charges in Singapore's State Courts, with a pre-trial conference scheduled for May 13.
- Sheyna's family issued a heartfelt four-page statement thanking the public, medical staff, and officials in both Singapore and Indonesia for their support following their daughter's death.
- The driver, a 38-year-old woman, has been charged in Singapore's State Courts with two counts of driving without due care and attention, causing death and grievous hurt, with her case adjourned for further investigation.
- The Indonesian Embassy in Singapore previously confirmed Sheyna died from cranio-cerebral injuries and that her mother, Ms. Raisha Anindra, sustained serious internal injuries and fractures, preventing her from saying goodbye.
The family of six-year-old Sheyna Lashira Smaradiani, an Indonesian girl tragically killed in a Chinatown accident, has expressed profound gratitude for the outpouring of support from both Singapore and Indonesia. While mourning their loss, they acknowledge the ongoing legal proceedings against the driver charged with driving without due care and attention.
