Overview
- Klevi Pirjani, 37, and Nivalda Santos Pirjani, 34, were found guilty at Liverpool Crown Court of murdering their baby, Miguel.
- The jury returned unanimous verdicts after a three-week trial, and both were also convicted of Section 18 assault.
- Miguel was found unresponsive at the family’s Seacombe home on November 24, 2024, was treated at Alder Hey Children’s Hospital, and died five days later.
- Medical and post-mortem evidence documented a skull fissure, bleeding on the brain, retinal haemorrhages, and multiple fractures of varying ages assessed as non-accidental.
- Mr Justice Baker remanded both defendants in custody for sentencing at a later date, and Merseyside Police described the case as “truly shocking.”
