A six-year-old girl, Saja, is reported to have been found alive after her family drowned off Shoreham beach and was pulled from the water by lifeboat crew. The sources say she was resuscitated on the beach, but later died in hospital three days afterward.
An inquest is described as hearing that her death is linked to a serious brain injury. The reporting notes that despite immediate emergency treatment at the scene, she did not recover and succumbed to the injuries sustained during the incident.
Both accounts presented here focus on the same sequence of events: the rescue, beach resuscitation, survival for several days, and death in hospital. The coverage does not provide further details in the excerpts about the wider circumstances of the drowning, the cause of the family’s deaths, or any findings from other evidence at the inquest.
