Leicester mum’s tragic death

A BRITISH motherof-four was accidentally killed by a relative while on holiday in South Africa, reports on Tuesday (9) said.

Fatima Issa, 47, was allegedly accidentally shot by a male relative in Johannesburg. She taught at Leicester College.

Her brother Ebrahim Lambat confirmed her death on Facebook, saying she had “returned to the mercy of Allah”.

Yusuf Abramjee revealed that a relative was cleaning a gun, but appeared to have forgotten it was loaded. He accidentally pulled the trigger and Issa was shot at pointblank range, he added.

Issa had travelled with her daughter Humairah, 19, to spend a fortnight with family. Her three other children were at home in Leicester, with her husband Fayaz, 47, who worked for Leicester City Council.
