AS concerned parents we demand to know the outcome of the investigation in which two little boys lost their precious lives after taking what turned out to be food unfit for human consumption. Simply shelving the matter citing an excuse of ‘lack of evidence’ is unacceptable.

I would like to remind the authorities that a post-mortem was conducted and all that could possibly be learned was done and the reports of the different tests are available.

The authorities should not let this matter be pushed into the unsolved cases files.
