TUI responds after mum 'thrown off' cliff in horrific holiday accident

TUI confirmed a "full investigation" was launched after a horrific accident saw a mum "throw off" a cliff and "stranded" in a Turkish hospital for three weeks.

The ECHO previously reported how Rebekka Kelly flew to Antalya with her eldest son Sonny on August 26 and booked an excursion via a TUI rep for a buggy safari tour. However, on September 2, problems with the buggy's steering led to a serious accident in which the vehicle "flew off a cliff".

Rebekka, who said her seatbelt also failed, was "thrown out of the buggy" and lost consciousness. After the accident, the Birkenhead mum was rushed to hospital for two major operations having broken seven vertebra in her spine and her pelvis as well as an internal bleed, but two weeks on remains in hospital.
