A woman arrested in connection with a crash at a school in Wimbledon has been re-bailed until January next year, police have said.

Two eight-year-old girls, Nuria Sajjad and Selena Lau, died after a Land Rover crashed through a fence into The Study prep school in Wimbledon, south London, on 6 July.

Sixteen people were treated at the scene of the crash, and several – including a seven-month-old girl – were taken to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

A 46-year-old woman from Wimbledon was arrested on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving, and was later bailed.

Detectives from the Met Police’s serious collision unit are continuing to investigate the crash.

In a statement sent to Sky News, the force said: “A 46-year-old woman from Wimbledon has been bailed until January 2024.”

Inquests into the deaths of Nuria and Selena were opened and adjourned at Inner West London Coroner’s Court on Tuesday 12 July, police said.

“Their families continue to request privacy at this difficult time,” the force’s statement added. “No other victims remain in hospital.”

The families of both girls paid tribute following their deaths.

In a statement at the time, Nuria’s family said: “Nuria was the light of our lives. She embodied joy, kindness and generosity and she was loved by all around her.”

Selena’s family paid tribute to “an intelligent and cheeky girl adored and loved by everyone”.
