Family deaths father Aram Aziz 'killed himself' at park | |
(about 14 hours later) | |
A man who is thought to have killed his ex-partner and their two children, hanged himself in a Leicestershire park, a coroner has ruled. | |
The body of Aram Aziz, 32, was found in a birdwatching hut at Watermead Country Park on 11 February last year. | |
His former partner Joy Small, 24, and their two children were found dead the next day at a flat in Mowmacre. | |
Coroner Catherine Mason, at Leicester Coroner's Court, ruled that Mr Aziz had committed suicide. | |
It is believed Mr Aziz killed Ms Small, his three-year-old son Aubarr and two-year-old daughter Chanara before killing himself at the Leicestershire park. | |
The hearing was told he had left a note by his body. | |
Mrs Mason heard evidence from a pathologist and Leicestershire Police before delivering her verdict. | |
A second inquest, at Leicester Town Hall Square, into the deaths of Ms Small, Aubarr and Chanara, is under way. | |
An independent review into contact between police and Ms Small will be published after that inquest concludes. |
