Police in England have arrested five people in connection with the fatal house fire which killed the wife and three children of a Dublin-based surgeon.
The arrests, of three women aged 19, 20, 27-years-old and two men aged 49 and 19, were made earlier this afternoon
Dr Muhammad Taufiq, who works as a neurosurgeon at a number of Dublin hospitals, says he deeply misses his beautiful wife and three children.
Speaking at the Jame Mosque in Leicester, he said: "All of you know the tragic incident in ... which my entire family has passed away.
"I deeply miss my beautiful wife and three beautiful children. What has happened has happened, and nothing can be reversed.
"But I hope justice will prevail and in future this should not happen to any family in the UK," he said.
