Dr. Anjum Afshan, a 62-year-old doctor, was tragically killed in a hit-and-run incident in a hospital car park when delivery driver Gulamo Remtula allegedly reversed his van without proper checks. The collision occurred as Dr. Afshan was walking to catch a bus after her shift. Despite the quick response from a colleague, she was declared dead shortly after the incident. Remtula, 58, denies causing her death by careless driving. The prosecution described Remtula's actions as inattentive and highlighted the absence of an audible reversing alarm on his vehicle.
"In this case, the prosecution invite you to conclude the driving was careless because the defendant reversed through a car park without making adequate checks of his blind spot."
"There is no real question it was the incident involving the defendant's vehicle that caused the death of Dr Afshan."
