A probe into the death of a child is due to take place later this year.

Freya Murphy passed away at Glasgow’s Queen Elizabeth University Hospital on July 28 2018.

The exact age of the young girl and the cause of death are not known.

The circumstances surrounding what happened were due to be examined at a Fatal Accident Inquiry (FAI) in August last year.

But, the case at Glasgow Sheriff Court was postponed and it has been confirmed it is now set to begin in May 2024.

The FAI – due to be before Sheriff Barry Divers – is scheduled to last five days.

Two hearings will take place before the full inquiry in March and April.

A previous calling of the case was told Freya’s parents Martin and Karen Murphy will have lawyers acting for them as will NHS Scotland and two doctors.
