Thousands of pounds worth of fish died after electricity was cut off in the house of a man who had passed away. Harry Wilson lived on Hobsic Close in Brinsley, Nottinghamshire before he died aged 85 in August 2020 following a battle with cancer.
Mr Wilson had around 50 fish, including koi carp and ghost koi in a pond at his home. According to granddaughter Kelly Hart, these fish were worth thousands of pounds in total, hold sentimental value to the family and were heirlooms. The fish in the pond are freshwater fish, meaning they need clean water to live, which in this case was managed by an electrical pump and a UV light to kill any harmful bacteria.
Kelly says there have been a number of problems with Mr Wilson's will, which is why the family is not in control of the property, and she claims it's managed by a number of solicitor firms.
