He urged the public to avoid speculation and respect the family’s grief during this painful time.

He reminded media and public alike to avoid prejudicing the legal process and respect the right to a fair trial.

Family Mourns, Community United in Grief

The children’s father, Alfil Bash, emotionally described his eldest, Fares, as a “genius boy” who loved football, singing, and maths during the inquest opening.
