An 80-year-old man who was attacked by a young woman in Coventry city centre has died.

The teenager responsible for assaulting Joginder Singh in Trinity Street could now face new charges.

Mr Singh, aged 80, of Cannon Park, died on Sunday.

He had been pushed to the ground in Trinity Street on August 10. The incident was caught on camera and shown on the internet.

Coral Millerchip, 19, has already admitted a charge of assault, and will be sentenced after a separate matter has been concluded.

That hearing is likely to be subject to significant delays now that Mr Singh has passed away.

Det Chief Insp Matt Markham from Coventry CID, said: “Following the assault Mr Singh was readmitted to hospital and was being treated for a diagnosed condition and at this stage it is unclear if that is directly connected with the assault.“

Our thoughts remain with the family and those affected by Mr Singh’s death and we will continue to work with CPS and the coroner to establish the cause of death.“

Specialist family liaison police officers have been appointed to liaise with Mr Singh’s next of kin and we will continue to support the family at this sad time.

”Mr Singh was reported to be “fighting for his life” when Millerchip first appeared in Coventry Magistrates Court in August.

During the hearing prosecutor Pamela Meinert said that Mr Singh was in a critical condition in hospital.

She added that it was not known whether his condition was anything to do with the attack.

Mr Singh was discharged from hospital after the attack but was later re-admitted for treatment of a previously diagnosed condition.

A post-mortem examination of Mr Singh’s body, carried out on Monday, was inconclusive.

Further tests are now being carried out to try and establish what caused his death.

Detectives have notified the Crown Prosecution Service who will now make a decision on what further action will be taken.

Police say any further court hearing is likely to be delayed until next year.

Responding to Mr Singh’s death Coun Harjinder Singh Sehmi said: “It’s really bad news - an extremely sad day for the community.

“She (Coral Millerchip) has already admitted that she attacked Mr Singh - there’s nothing more that can be said really.

“Any decision about what happens now is in the hands of the Crown Prosecution Service and ultimately the courts.

”The attack was caught on camera with thousands of people viewing the video and commenting on what they saw."

Sad news...

In the UK the mens rea (Latin for "guilty mind") of murder is either an intention to kill or an intention to cause grievous bodily harm (which is clear from the evidence).

The woman in question should be tried for murder and this case should be a warning for all those using violence against others.

Please support the family (and publish any funeral/ path details).

    • If relationship with Guru is strong, then kanga is done twice a day, and turban should never be taken off or put on like a hat, there is a lot wrong with that as it is against rehit! maryada is to take off every layer of turban/pagh/dumalla individually, and tie fresh turban each time!
    • the whole 'your husband/wife is chosen for you'/sanjog thing is real, it's just that a lot of people end up marrying the wrong person. they did not end up with the person that was meant for them. my friend, you should marry someone who you feel a connection with and love. there are millions of sikh girls, i'm sure you can find someone who aligns with your sensibilities and who you can truthfully say that you love. sikhi does not say anything against love marriages. you can also be in a loveless arranged marriage which is a safe option b/c both families are more inclined to keep the union intact. i was one of those people who was like meh, i guess i'll just get arranged to some sikh. well i finally started dating for the first time this year and i'm getting married to someone that i love and cannot even imagine leaving. i think it's better to have lost & lost than never loved at all. unfortunately, a lot of people confuse love w/ looks & lust. a lot of men go for the fittest girl they can find and think they won the jackpot or something. in reality, your partner should be like an extremely loved best friend. there's a reason why it's a fact that the most stable and long-lasting relationships started as friendships.  i also think a lot of women are petty and divorce over small reasons, but there's other terrible things like high cheating rates as well. that's why the divorce rate in the west is high. be careful out there.
    • andrew tate praises sikhi too & likes sikhs. his brother also donated to sikh families iirc. they just like any "alpha" religion and tbh islam is the most "alpha" in their eyes. islam is very good at promoting that image. but imo a real alpha man doesn't command respect by beating up his wive(s) or forcing them to wear a burqa. a real man will have his woman listen to him w/o raising a hand or his voice, and command respect by being respectful. he leads by example and integrity. that's true masculinity. you get the idea. + yes, it's definitely true that islam is growing rapidly and making massive inroads. strength in numbers + belief will do that. but rlly it's just because of the birth rate. a lot of them are muslim b/c it's their "identity" just like how a lot of young sikhs will say they're "culturally sikh" or whatever. there just aren't billions of sikhs who lambast their identity everywhere and have strict and linear rules like in islam. besides, the reality is that islam and its followers are some of the most morally bankrupt. you can see all the weird trans rules in iran, bacche baazi in afghanistan, visiting brothels, watching p*rn, p*dophilia what goes on behind the scenes in countries like uae & qatar, etc, and come to your conclusions. you can google all the stats yourself and see which countries do the most of these ^.   
    • stop associating with hinduism, that's the absolutely worst thing you can do as a sikh. not sure if you noticed but the entire world looks down upon and spits at india & hindus, literally no one respects them and considers them weak and cowardly. literally 1+ billion of them but not perceived as a strong religion commandeering respect. 
    • you wrote a whole lot but told us nothing. what exactly did you do wrong to make you feel this way?
