The first victim came to the hearing today. She commented briefly on what happened. “I don’t know where the child stayed. I don’t know. She has taken her out of the house or even at home, I really don’t know,” Sintija told TV3 Ziņas.
According to the indictment, on the night of April 4, 1959, a woman born in 1959, Sandra Mitrēvica, who had a medical education at her home, gave birth to her granddaughter. In uncertain circumstances, her newborn baby was abducted and taken away from home. The accused then killed his grandchild.
“In any event, on examination of the case-file, I am convinced that this evidence is sufficient to bring such charges against two offenses and that the situation is such that this corpse has not been found in a particular case, but the prosecutor is convinced that fixed with them would be enough to be able to prosecute directly for killing, “prosecutor Zinta Meija told TV3 News.
If the court finds the woman guilty, she faces life imprisonment. However, the accused’s lawyer states that Mitrevica denies all charges and she expects full acquittal.
“Of course, Sandra Mitrēvica does not admit what she has done at the moment and feels innocent. Of course there is some evidence, but the question of their quality, whether they are enough. I think it would not be right now to allow the public to convict Sandra Mitrēvica sooner than hypothetically. would do it, “said lawyer Aldis Liepins.
He also completely rejected claims that Sandra Mitrevica was the one who accepted the birth: “In her opinion, definitely not.” Since November 5 last year, the accused has been in custody. At the hearing today, she declined to comment.
