A man accused of the murder of Vadims Zmicerevskis, who tragically lost his life after an incident in Spalding, Lincolnshire, is set to face trial in July. Viktors Zeglovs, aged 33 and without a fixed address, has pleaded not guilty to the charges of murder and manslaughter in connection with Mr. Zmicerevskis’ death on 11th November 2024 at the junction of Green Lane and St. Thomas’ Road.
