The nine-year-old can be seen playing with a hula hoop alongside her younger sister just ten minutes before the shocking attack last Thursday (28 July).

Police officers and paramedics rushed to the scene in a desperate bid to save her.

A 22-year-old man has been charged with the murder of Lilia and appeared in court earlier this week.
