Jamie Barrow is accused of murdering Fatoumatta Hydara and her young daughters, aged one and three.
By Liam BarnesA mother and her two young daughters were murdered by a neighbour who poured petrol through their letterbox before setting it alight, a court has heard.
Simon Ash KC, prosecuting, said Ms Hydara had returned with her children to their flat at about 16:30 GMT on 19 November after visiting family. On the second occasion, he left at about 22:40 and returned about 15 minutes later, during which time Ms Hydara was on the phone to her husband. The defendant "had a grievance" with the deceased, the prosecutor said, as he believed she had been leaving rubbish bags in an alley.
