The biological mother of Yves Sakila, who died after an incident outside a Dublin department store, has called for “justice” for her son, and appealed for support for the woman who raised him in Ireland.

Janet Sakila said she was “heartbroken” over the death of her son, and thanked his stepmother Angel Issemezey Anzibi for taking care of him after he moved to Ireland in a reunification programme.
