Father whose daughter died in fall to build orphanage

THE father of a toddler who fell to her death from a third floor window in Cork is fundraising to build an orphanage in his daughter’s memory.

Shawhut Ali lost his baby daughter Sumaiya in August 2007 after she crawled out the window of the family home, a third floor flat on Hardwick Street, off Coburg Street, in the city centre.

The family, originally from Bangladesh, have since moved to a basement premises around the corner on St Patrick’s Hill.
