Police have named a father and daughter who died in a house fire as 38-year-old Sohaib Ahmed and his nine-year-old daughter Manahal.
Mother Asifa was not at the family home in Heckmondwike, West Yorkshire, when the blaze took hold on Sunday morning as she was on a pilgrimage to the holy city of Mecca, in Saudi Arabia.
The couple's 11-year-old daughter, who was seriously injured in the fire, continues to be treated in hospital and is described as being in a critical but stable condition.
Their eldest son was also not at home when the tragedy occurred as he was sleeping at a relative's house.
Devasted mother Asifa is thought to have returned to the UK from her Hajj.
