Parents Arathi Nehar and Jaswinder Singh thanked West Midlands Police for investigating the deaths of their sons Sanjay, aged 10, and Pawanveer, aged 23 months.

They said the boys were taken from them "in a blink of an eye" on the day their "lives and our home died too".

The statement read: "We will never see them grow up into teenagers and then later as adults. We have been robbed of that. Our boys were taken away in a blink of an eye on the 14th March 2019. The day that our lives and our home died too."
