A coroner ruled that 15-week-old Akram Mohammed's death was due to Strep B, pneumonia, and Vitamin D deficiency. His parents believed that their mouldy flat in Camden contributed to his death, prompting protests against Notting Hill Genesis housing association. Senior coroner Mary Hassell acknowledged the flat's dampness but concluded the health issues were not caused by it. A pathologist clarified that the fungal growths in Akram's lungs did not match the mould found in the home.
