Family of alleged murder victim say they want justice after fatal fire

The brothers of the man who died in a house fire last week have spoken of their loss.

"It's a very terrible situation for our family," Akech Deng, the brother of the deceased man, Kot Ador Deng, said outside court. "We cannot believe that we have lost him that way."

They addressed the media after 38-year-old Atem Marol Deng appeared before ACT Magistrates Court accused of murder and of arson. He did not make a bid for conditional release when he faced the court but entered not guilty pleas.
