A man facing charges of impaired driving causing the death of a 61-year-old Richmond woman in the Massey Tunnel has pleaded not guilty.
Sundeep Singh Mann appeared at Richmond Provincial Court last week to face the charges, following the fatal accident in 2020.
The woman, who was driving another vehicle, died after colliding head-on with a southbound vehicle that crossed the centre line inside the tunnel shortly after midnight on Sept. 2, 2020.
Her passenger was sent to the hospital with serious injuries.
Mann faces six charges, including two for having a blood alcohol concentration that was equal to or in excess of 80 milligrams of alcohol in 100 millilitres of blood while driving a vehicle.
Mann appeared in court on May 23 and pleaded not guilty to all six charges. He appeared again in court the next day and is now scheduled to appear at Vancouver Provincial Court on July 5, 2023 for another pre-trial conference.
