A 37-year-old man whose child died after he forgot it in his car will be prosecuted for involuntary manslaughter, the prosecutor of Arta in NW Greece said on Tuesday.
The man was expected to leave the child, aged 5.5 months, at the nursery station but forgot it in the back seat of the car. The tragic mistake was discovered when the mother, 27, went to the station to pick up the child. The parents rushed the unresponsive child to hospital where its death was confirmed.
Both parents have been hospitalized under heavy sedation, with the father being guarded as well.
An autopsy on the child will be carried out on Wednesday morning at the University Hospital of Ioannina.
