Authorities have said they will “revisit” their decision not to hold a review into the death of a woman who claimed her husband burned her with scalding oil following a row in their chip shop.
Mavis Bran, 69, was left with severe burns to 46% of her body after being injured inside the Chipoteria in Hermon, Carmarthenshire, and died from multi-organ failure in hospital six days later on October 29 2018.
Her husband Geoffrey Bran, 72, was cleared of causing her death after he was found not guilty of murder and manslaughter following a week-long trial in November 2019.
The trial heard Mrs Bran alleged her husband had attacked her with a fryer, but authorities in Carmarthenshire previously decided against holding a domestic homicide review (DHR) into the circumstances leading up to her death.
