Antonio Boparan faces a second jail term after he was prosecuted for killing a little girl in a car crash following her death nine years after the incident
A tycoon's son faces jail for a second time following the death of a little girl nine years after he hit her in a 70mph crash.
Little Cerys Edwards was horrifically injured when Antonio Boparan smashed his 2.5-ton Range Rover into her family's car when overtaking on a suburban street in 2006.
She had just turned one and had to spend the rest of her life on a ventilator before tragically dying in 2015.
Boparan – heir to an £800million food manufacturing fortune – was originally convicted of dangerous driving 18 months after the smash and jailed for 21 months.
He served only six months, sparking outrage at the perceived softness of the punishment.
He was brought back before a court for causing death by dangerous driving this year following Cery's death.
Boparan, who is a director of the 2 Sisters Food Group, pleaded guilty to the charge at Birmingham Crown Court today.
Simon Davis, prosecuting, said: 'He has pleaded guilty to one charge. The offence was committed on November 11, 2006 but her untimely death was on October 17, 2015.'
The prosecutor continued: 'Seriously and life-threatening injuries were caused to Cerys and for a number of years she was dependent on medical care.
'Cerys was never able to breath independently following the crash and there were increasingly frequent admissions to hospital.
'On September 9, 2015, she was admitted to Birmingham Children's Hospital - she died just over a month later.'

Boparan was 19 when he caused Cerys's injuries while overtaking in his mother's powerful £57,000 Range Rover. - just six months after passing his test.
The Edwards family were returning home from delivering Christmas presents when Boparan crashed into them on the wrong side of the road on the evening of November 11, 2006.
The crash in Sutton Coldfield, West Midlands, left Cerys unable to speak and in need of round-the-clock care.
She died in October 2015 at Birmingham Children's Hospital after contracting a virus.

Cerys was awarded £5million compensation in 2012.
Following his release from prison on curfew conditions, Boparan, who is married with two children, set up a trust for disadvantaged youngsters.
His father Ranjit Boparan Singh, 52, is a food manufacturing tycoon known as the 'Chicken King' in the West Midlands. The businessman donated £200,000 toward Cerys's care.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
