ONE OF the women left in a critical condition after the Northampton club crush, which caused the tragic death of a Neasden woman, is showing signs of improvement.
Northampton Police issued a statement this morning to reiterate their appeal for witnesses of the disaster at Lava and Ignite in the early hours of Wednesday October 19.
22-year-old Neasden resident Nabila Nanfuka, a student in Northampton, died in the stampede, which was thought to have been caused by revellers at the 'Wickedest Wickedest' night rushing to get buses home.
Nabila's family and friends have paid tribute to her this week, with hundreds of people posting their condolences on Twitter.
A 19-year-old woman from London remains in a critical condition and a 21-year-old woman, also from London, is now conscious and appears to be showing signs of improvement at Northampton General Hospital.
Officers are continuing to appeal for witnesses to the incident and are urging anyone who took mobile phone video footage or photographs to provide them with "any materials".
Northamptonshire Police superintendent Andy Cox said: "Northamptonshire Police has a dedicated team of specialist investigators working to fully understand the events which led to the tragic death of Nabila Nanfuka. We currently have over 50 officers and staff working on the case, including colleagues from across the region. We are also working closely with our partner agencies across the county.
"We are determined to investigate this tragic incident thoroughly and professionally, however we need the public’s assistance to help us understand what happened inside Lava and Ignite nightclub in the early hours of Wednesday 19 October. We would like to thank those members of the public who have already made contact, but it is crucial that we speak to as many people as possible who attended the event."
