Talha's mum needs help

THE tragic story of Talha Ikram is refusing to go away and rightly so.

The sheer disbelief that two people could be responsible for something so horrific as the torture and death of a 17-month-old baby is grim enough.

Now his natural mother has spoken to the Gazette desperate for answers to her unanswered questions about why the boy is gone.

Nothing anyone can say will make the death any easier but it is clear that Habiba Ikram needs more than a dismissive wave of the hand to help her cope with this terrible tragedy.
