Significant case review into social work department regarding Mikaeel Kular


The three-year-old’s mother Rosdeep Kular admitted beating him to death after losing her temper when he was sick after a trip to Nando’s.
She then wrapped him in a duvet and buried him in a suitcase in woods behind her sister’s house in Kirkcaldy, Fife.
The family had extended contact with social services when they lived in both Fife and Edinburgh after Kular left her children alone when she went out drinking.

Rosdeep Kular, 34, faced a murder charge at Edinburgh High Court but pleaded guilty instead to culpable homicide - despite inflicting 40 injuries on her son Mikaeel’s body. The average punishment for this lesser offence is eight years. Kular, whose mother and stepfather are family doctors, will get a third off for submitting an early plea and qualify for automatic early release after serving two-thirds of her sentence. A police officer involved in the hunt sparked when the mother-of-five reported Mikaeel missing described the deal as "scandalous".
Initially Kular said Mikaeel had wandered off. Hundreds of residents joined police scouring the area. But after being quizzed for a third time, divorced former hairdresser kular said: "It was an accident and I panicked. I am going to jail." The remains were found in a suitcase in woods near Kular’s childhood home in Kirkcaldy, Fife. Last night Fife Council announced a review as it emerged that in 2013 Mikaeel and Ashika were placed in care as Kular battled alcoholism. She will be sentenced next month.
Will it be recognised as a GIRFEC failure?
