<\/p>\nA frantic 999 call made by Logan Mwangi\u2019s mother Angharad Williamson on the morning the five-year-old\u2019s body was dumped in a river has been described by a prosecutor as \u201cchilling\u201d.<\/p>\n
Laying out the prosecution case, Caroline Rees QC told Cardiff Crown Court that Williamson\u2019s plea for police to find Logan was \u201call an act\u201d.<\/p>\n
Ms Rees told the judge it was part of an elaborate cover-up concocted by Williamson, her partner John Cole and a 14-year-old youth who cannot be named for legal reasons. <\/p>\n
Ms Rees said: \u201cIt might sound like a heartfelt call of distress from a mother reporting her child missing. <\/p>\n
"But with knowledge of the CCTV and the proof that Angharad Williamson knew exactly what was going on that night, the prosecution say that the 999 call is, in fact, chilling in that it demonstrates the extent to which Williamson was prepared to lie and her ability to put on a performance to save her own skin, even when dealing with the death of her own five-year-old child.\u201d<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Police body-worn camera footage shows officers first visiting the flat in Sarn, Bridgend, where Logan is believed to have been killed is to be shown in court, the jury was told.<\/p>\n
Logan\u2019s mother can be seen \u201cwailing and shouting\u201d while Cole is \u201cplaying the part of the concerned stepdad\u201d, prosecutor Caroline Rees said.<\/p>\n
She added that the sound of a tumble dryer and washing machine can be heard in the background, and asked: \u201cWhy on earth would the family be doing the laundry as a matter of such urgency in the circumstances?<\/p>\n
\u201cThe prosecution suggest that this was to dispose of incriminating evidence and that one of the items laundered was part of Logan\u2019s bed linen.\u201d<\/p>\n

The jurors in the trial over the death of Logan Mwangi in Sarn, Bridgend, have been told they will be shown footage of the moment on July 31, 2021, when police discovered the five-year-old\u2019s body in the River Ogmore.<\/p>\n
The video taken from the body-worn camera of a South Wales Police officer shows her running down a muddy path until she reaches the boulders at the bank of the river.<\/p>\n
Prosecutor Caroline Rees QC said: \u201cShe saw there the body of a young child lying on his right side with his knees bent in an open foetal position. It was Logan.<\/p>\n
\u201cShe climbed into the river and walked down to where he was and picked Logan up in her arms.<\/p>\n
\u201cShe noted he had a head injury. His body was cold and stiff, his lips were blue and his eyes were wide open. There was no sign of life.\u201d<\/p>\n
