A schoolboy sent a heartbreaking message to friends shortly before taking his own life, leaving family and friends devastated.
Layth Ali Maumoniat was found dead at home in Alwoodley, Leeds on April 27 this year, an inquest heard. The inquest in Wakefield was told that Layth, 12, was struggling to deal with his emotions following the death of his mum who had taken her own life 18 months earlier in similar circumstances.
His family said they believed Layth may have been upset on the day of his death after getting into trouble at school and being told he was being 'expelled'. The school, Allerton High, disputed this, saying they had found him alternative provision.
