A baby who lived in a mouldy housing association flat in north London died of unrelated causes, a coroner has found.

Akram Mohammed died in February aged 15 weeks, which his parents believed was due to damp conditions in their Camden home.

Earlier this year, the boy's death sparked angry protests aimed at housing association Notting Hill Genesis, over the state of the family's flat and failure to rectify it.

Senior coroner Mary Hassell acknowledged their home was damp and mouldy, but concluded that Akram actually died of Strep B, pneumonia and Vitamin D deficiency.
