A murder examination of the death of Murder started in 2015 never led to a conviction

A mother who was found dead in her family house almost a decade ago was “illegally killed” that a coroner ruled – but her death remains “unresolved”.

The 56 -year -old Mumaz member was found on December 12, 2015 with excessive injuries to the head, face and neck in a bedroom in her house in Stoneygate, Leicester.

At that time, the police from Leicestershire initiated a murder examination that led to murdered systems against their two sons and daughter -in -law, which were later dropped.

After a seven -day investigation before the court of Leicester Coroner, Senior Coroner Coroner Catherine Mason said “Mumtaz was killed by a person or an unimaginated person on the balance of the probabilities”.

The cause of her death was completed as “blunt force head and facial injuries”.

The sons of the MRS member, Mohammed and Shafiq and Shafiq's Mrs. Fatima, were all charged for murder, but the indictment was dropped by the Crown Consection Service in February 2016 due to “inadequate evidence”.

The investigation was a fact to determine how MRS member came to her death so as not to find guilt.

The family of the MRS member has always said that it was not killed by her children, but by an intruder, and said that Mohammed, Shafiq and Fatima “should never have been charged”.

“Death remains unsolved”

Prof. Mason said: “It was a difficult trip to get into this phase, and although I was able to answer some of her questions, I could not answer the question of who killed her. This death remains unresolved.”

She added that the family's family would feel their loss “for the rest of her life”.

In her explanation, the family said: “The family believes that the focus of the police on the children of Mumtaz meant that time was lost and missed the possibilities of identifying the true murderer.

“The true murderer of Mumaz is still out there. The family hopes that this person – who – who is not identified as the forensic doctor – will be caught and put on trial.

“But at the moment they want to continue with their lives and remember Mumaz as the wonderful person they were.”

The police said they “still really” believe “the answer for those responsible” remains in the community “and asked everyone to report to everyone.

The house was sealed for the police investigation for a significant period of time, the investigation had heard

The investigation heard that MRS member had lived in the house of her parents-in-law for a few nights before she died for a “mourning time” after the death of her father-in-law.

There she had lived there next to her husband Ibrahim and other family members before deciding on Friday, December 11th, going home alone.

The next morning Ibrahim returned home to find his wife dead, as the court heard.

Several family members who were called as witnesses during the investigation said that the MRS member had been encouraged to stay with her in-laws for another night, but she was “tired” and drove home, where Mohammed, Shafiq and Fatima and her little son had already returned.

When Ibrahim found her the next morning, the court heard that he called his brothers “to support”, and several family members went into the house before 999 was called.

An ambulance crew was originally called to a “nose blood” known as “nose blood” before it was changed to “cardiac arrest”, the court heard, but when it arrived, MRS member was “cold to touch”.

The bedroom had blood splashes on all four walls, the ceiling and the door, the examination was communicated, and MRS member had several serious injuries, including cuts to the face and head, “intensive bruises” and loose teeth.

The ambulance crew came to a “confusing” scene with around 25 people in the house.

“No motive”

A forensic scientist informed the study that no traces of blood were found outside the MRS member's bedroom.

Michael Graham, the retired Det Supt, who became the Murder examination in March 2016, said that he “had never been able to find out” how no blood was transferred outside the bedroom.

He said that there was no evidence of cleaning up, never found weapon and that a motive was never set up.

There was also no evidence of a break -in, a disturbance or signs of an intruder.

The court also heard that there was “no scientific evidence” that showed that Mohammed, Shafiq or Fatima were involved in their death.

During the entire investigation, the court heard the gold jewelry of the MRS member, from which family members had been in the house at the time of their death.

The police said they pursued the lack of jewelry as a line of investigation, but the matter was never solved.

The examination heard that there were three hypotheses in the study; The MRS member was killed by one of the people in the house on the evening in which she died, she was killed by a person known to her or that she was killed by a third party. Mr. Graham said all three hypotheses had “the same weighting”.

The investigation took place for seven days in the Leicester town hall

The family of the MRS member said that she was “loved by her family and is very missing by everyone”.

The Leicestershire police said: “We recognize the result of the examination of the HM Coroner after the MRS member's death. Their death remains an unsolved murder case.

“Despite extensive inquiries and numerous appeals for information, we could not identify the person or people who are responsible for their terrible death.

“We still really believe that the answer to who was responsible for this hideous crime.

“If someone has information, you will be asked to contact. If you cannot contact the police directly, you will have further options available, such as:
