Marketing student Benita Kaur Gill, 20, was having drinks with her friends at a student flat in Old Market Square, pictured, when she fell after climbing onto a bannister.
A Nottingham Trent University student fell to her death while sliding down a bannister during pre-drinks, an inquest has heard.
Evidence given by DC Demi Robertson at the hearing on Wednesday at Nottingham Council House described how Benita climbed on the bannister with her back facing outwards when she lost her balance and fell, with the incident captured on CCTV. 'Benita then sat sideways on the bannister of the stairs and started to slide down it with her back facing the stairwell. I find that alcohol has contributed to decision making in doing so, which has ultimately led to her fall, causing a traumatic brain injury.'
'I find that Benita's action of sitting on the handrail and subsequently sliding down it unexpectedly and unintentionally went tragically wrong. I wish to express my sincere condolences to the family and friends of Benita and I'm so very sorry for your loss.'
