The driver charged with manslaughter in the deaths of 39 people found in the back of his truck has made his first court appearance in Britain.
Maurice Robinson appeared in Chelmsford Magistrates Court via a video link from prison Monday but was not required to enter a plea.
The 25-year-old will be kept in custody until he appears at a higher court on Nov. 25, where he will be expected to enter a plea.
He is charged with 39 counts of manslaughter, two counts of conspiracy to facilitate human trafficking and other crimes.
China says it has asked British authorities to provide more information on the identity of 39 people who were found dead in a truck in southeastern England last week.
Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Geng Shuang said Monday that the U.K. has not confirmed the victims' nationalities. British police initially believed they were Chinese, but later acknowledged that the details were still evolving. |
