Mother and daughters died from smoke inhalation, inquest hears

Fatoumatta Hydara died two days after her daughters Naeemah Drammeh and Fatimah Drammeh

A mother and her two children who died after a fire in Nottingham were killed by smoke inhalation, an inquest heard.

One-year-old Naeemah Drammeh and Fatimah Drammeh, aged three, died in hospital on 20 November after a blaze at a flat on Fairisle Close, Clifton.

Their mother, 28-year-old Fatoumatta Hydara, was also taken to hospital but died two days later.

An inquest at Nottingham Coroner's Court was adjourned as a criminal trial is due to take place next year.

Jamie Barrow, 31, who lives on the same street, has been charged with three counts of murder, with a trial due to start at Nottingham Crown Court on 22 May.

The funeral for all three took place at a Nottingham mosque on Wednesday.
