A teenage mother who gave birth alone in a prison cell to a baby who did not survive was a suspected victim of county lines exploitation, an inquest into the baby’s death heard on Wednesday.
The inquest before the senior coroner for Surrey, Richard Travers, is considering whether any failures in the care provided to Aisha Cleary’s mother or to Aisha herself contributed to her death. It has not yet been determined whether Aisha was born alive and died shortly after or was stillborn.
