Funeral prayer service to take place for three-year-old and dad killed in West Cross house fire

A funeral prayers service will take place today for a father and his three-year-old son who tragically died in a devastating house fire in the West Cross area of Swansea. Naemat Lawa Esmael, aged 51, and his three-year-old son Muhammed Esmael, lost their lives in the tragic incident at Gonhill at 1.20pm on Saturday, July 1.

The prayers will be held at Swansea Mosque and Islamic Community Centre along St Helen's Road in Swansea, and will be led by Naemat's sibling. The family have requested that everyone joins in the prayer and pays their respects to both Naemat and Muhammed. It is expected to begin at around 11.30am.

A fundraiser has since been set up to support the family, which has currently raised more than £27,000. You can find that by clicking here. Get Swansea stories straight to your inbox with our newsletter.
