A loud smash is heard and the glass door splinters as Chura falls forward onto the dangerous shards.

There is a scream from within the house as Chura picks herself up and touches her leg before a man, woman and the little boy come over to check on her.

The family friend called Thida, whose home she was staying in, said the mother understood that the injuries were an accident.

Thida said: ‘I’m so relieved that Chura was not seriously hurt as the glass is very sharp and it could have been worse.

‘I hope that every parent who sees the security camera video will think about how to prevent this kind of accident.’
