The mute and autistic Chadrack Mbala Mule was found with his arms wrapped around his decomposed body Of her mother Esther Eketi-Mule in her northeastern London apartment. An investigation has heard how the heartbreaking find on October 20 came after Chadrack was unable to raise the alarm when her mother died earlier in the month after an epileptic seizure.
Chadrack died of malnutrition and dehydration and autism spectrum disorder Oct. 18, according to a report on his death.
The case has now raised questions over school procedures when children are absent.
Coroner Mary Hassel said in her report:
Quote
“Chadrack had learning difficulties and, when his mother died unexpectedly at home on 1 or 2 October 2016, he did not know how to call for help or feed himself properly.”
Staff at his school, Morningside Primary, had visited the home twice and rang several times in early October but could not get in.
The Coroner said:
“They … could not gain access to the block of flats where Chadrack and his mother lived.
“The likelihood is that Chadrack lived alone in the family home for over a fortnight after his mother’s death.
“He was found a couple of days after his own death, with his arms around her (the mother) body.
“She was by then very decomposed.”
