Inquiry demanded over flats deaths

Mar 18 2010

A charity has written to the Lord Advocate demanding an inquiry into the deaths of three asylum seekers who jumped off a tower block.

The trio, named locally as Serguei Serykh, his wife Tatiana and his stepson, had been living in the Red Road flats in Springburn, Glasgow, when their bodies were found on March 7.

It is understood the three Russian nationals moved to Canada and were granted refugee status in 2005.
