Help me find my son’s killers, pleads mother

The mother of a boy aged seven who died in an arson attack has pleaded for help to find her son’s killers four years on from the blaze.

Joel Uhrie died on Aug 20 2018 when a fire tore through the house in Deptford, south-east London he shared with his mother and older sister.

Ahead of the anniversary of his death, Joel’s mother Iroroefe O Edu appealed for information to help catch his killers, who police believe may have been in a gang.

Joel, who was due to start secondary school next month, was found dead in the upstairs bedroom, but Miss Edu and his 19-year-old sister escaped by jumping out of a first-floor window.
