Girl, 3, Dies 12 Days After Being Found in Pool on Family Holiday in Greece
Matilda was submerged for at least 10 minutes in a pool with no lifeguard or rescue equipment, leading to multiple arrests and charges, officials said.
- On Sunday, October 26, Matilda, a three-year-old British girl, died in hospital after 12 days following a pool incident while on holiday in Lardos, Rhodes.
- Her uncle allegedly left her alone for ten minutes before she walked toward the pool ladder and entered the water on Tuesday October 14.
- A British doctor staying at the hotel and a woman on a sun lounger pulled her from the water and performed CPR before she was intubated at the General Hospital of Rhodes and transferred to Crete and England.
- Police arrested her uncle and a 54-year-old travel agency manager, who face charges alongside the 57-year-old hotel owner and hotel director; CCTV recordings are under active investigation.
- An on-site investigation found minimal safety measures at the pool, with no lifeguard, no rescue equipment, and no designated supervisor, while the hotel manager's solicitor said the pool did not legally require a lifeguard.
