Child dies after falling from electric pole at Czech influencer's gathering

A three‑year‑old boy fell from an electric‑pole‑mounted power line during a meeting of a spiritual community led by Czech influencer Karolína Kostroňová. The child died later in hospital.

Kostroňová initially responded on Instagram, denying any adult responsibility and later removed the post. The boy’s mother released a sixteen‑page statement on a paid channel, rejecting claims that the children were unsupervised and describing the incident from her perspective. She emphasized that she had been watching her children and that the accusations were unfounded.

The Czech police have opened an investigation into the tragedy.
