Family of N2 crash victim says 'nothing will bring her back'
Updated | By Nushera Soodyal
The family of the pregnant Reservoir Hills woman who was killed in a car crash last year says they are relieved that the case against her fiance - who had been behind the wheel - is finally proceeding.
There had been a number of postponements since 22-year-old Sonali Sewbran's death.
The Umbumbulu Magistrate's Court heard that Devashen Naidoo had entered into a plea and sentence agreement for charges of culpable homicide and reckless and negligent driving.
Sewbran was 36 weeks pregnant when their vehicle crashed into a truck on the N2 near Umgababa in January 2017.
Naidoo was formally charged at the end of last year.
"Nothing will bring Sonali back - no matter how many times we come here with expectations. The fact that the way she [died] really hurts us," Sewbran's mother, Shireen said.
