The six year old girl who was shot in a gang-related attack has told the Daily Mail of her fears of being hurt again.
Thusha Kamaleswaran is expected to be permanently wheelchair-bound after a bullet hit her in the chest.
Thusha Kamaleswaran's mother said every time she closes her eyes she sees her daughter "lying on the ground covered in blood".
Sharmila Kamaleswaran told the Daily Mail: "We have to do everything for her. If she wants to go to the next room we have to carry her. I miss her when she is in the hospital. But I cannot sleep when she is here with me.
"I wake up in the night and the terrible events come back to me again. I stroke Thusha’s legs and cry. I cannot sleep. When I close my eyes I see Thusha lying on the ground covered in blood. Now I have to take sleeping tablets."
Members of the same Brixton gang who shot a 5-year-old little girl have been jailed for dealing drugs.
Three men were found guilty of a gang-related shooting that left a five-year-old paralysed, shattering her dreams of becoming a dancer.
