A MAN living in Aberystwyth has appeared before Swansea Crown Court charged with the murder of a two-year-old girl.

Lola James suffered a serious head injury at her home in Haverfordwest, Pembrokeshire, in July 2020, and died in hospital four days later.

Kyle Bevan, 30, of Rockland House, Queen’s Road, Aberystwyth, appeared before Swansea Crown Court on Monday, charged with her murder.

Lola’s mother, Sinead James of 6 St Clements Road, Neyland, has been charged with causing or allowing the death of a child.

Neither Bevan, 30, nor 29-year-old James entered pleas.

A pre-trial hearing has been set for 24 June.
