POLICE have arrested four men in connection with a car accident that killed two young brothers in Wolverhampton, it was reported on Tuesday (3).
Sanjay Singh, 10, and his 23-month-old brother, Pawanveer, died following an incident on Birmingham New Road in March. The boys’ mother was making a right turn off the road when their BMW was struck by an Audi S3.
Although both children received emergency treatment from medics, but were later pronounced dead at the scene.
Officers have been investigating the crash for the past six months and they have now arrested four men, aged 22, 23, 28 and 31, on suspicion of conspiracy to prevent the course of the justice.
The men have been released under investigation.
DC Karl Davies, from the serious collision investigation unit, said: “No one will ever forget that tragic evening which ripped a family apart. These arrests are part of our ongoing enquiries and we remain as determined as ever to get answers for the family of Pawanveer and Sanjay.”
Paying tribute to the brothers, Claire Williams, headteacher at Cotwall End Primary School in Sedgley, said Sanjay was the “life and soul of the class”.
She was quoted as saying: “We are all completely devastated at the loss of our much-loved pupil Sanjay Singh and his younger brother.
"Sanjay was a lively and fun boy who was the life and soul of the class, it was an absolute privilege and joy to teach him at our school and he will be sadly missed by all who knew him.
“On behalf of the school, I have sent my condolences to his family and our thoughts are with everyone who knew him at this difficult time.
"We will continue to offer support to staff and pupils affected by this tragedy.”
