Kohli died following an assault when he was out to walk his dog in a park in Leicester.

Leicester Police said in a statement: "The girl, who cannot be named for legal reasons, has been charged with manslaughter and is due to appear at Leicester Youth Court sitting at Leicester Magistrates' Court today (Monday 16 December)."

A 15-year-old boy has already been charged with the murder of Kohli.

According to reports, four other children, a girl aged 14, and one boy and two girls aged 12, were arrested in September on suspicion of murder.

They were later released.

After Kohli's death, his family had said in a statement: "He has always been a very hardworking man and even at the age of 80 he was still very active. One of his great passions was his allotment, he would go everyday to tend to his plots and was so proud of them. He also enjoyed walking the family dog Rocky on the park many times a day."

“Bhim loved to laugh. He was always very happy and talkative, the joker of the family and always loved to outsmart us with a smile. Our family have lived in the same house in Braunstone for 40 years, so he was very well known in the community – we have been overwhelmed by the messages and support from many who knew him," the statement said.
