A 74-year-old woman was found guilty of fatally injuring a 10-year-girl who was hit by a car while crossing a street.

Paphos district court found the older woman guilty on Monday and is set to sentence her on July 17.

Nelina Fakliska, born to a Bulgarian family, was trying to cross Tassou Papadopoulos street on November 22 in 2019, when she was hit by an oncoming vehicle which the older woman was driving.

The 74-year-old did not admit to reckless or dangerous acts but plead guilty to driving a vehicle with an expired driver’s licence.
