Parent's horror after being told their daughter had stopped breathing due to allergic reaction before she died two days later

The parents of a teenage girl who died after suffering a fatal allergic reaction have spoken about the moment they were rushed to hospital to be with her.

READ MORE: Lancashire man wasn't unlawfully killed by police after he choked to death on packet of drugs "At first it didn't register. He said 'you need to come with me now. Megan's not breathing'. After that the journey home was just a blur. I got onto our road and all I could see was flashing lights, ambulances. As soon as I got through the door I ran straight upstairs to Megan."

Following Megan's death, two takeaway bosses were jailed for her manslaughter. A jury at Manchester Crown Court found takeaway owner Mohammed Abdul Kuddus, 40, and manager Harun Rashid, 38, guilty of unlawfully killing Megan by reason of gross negligence. The two-week trial heard there was a 'litany of failings' in the kitchen, including poor hygiene and no records of ingredients kept.

Gemma said: "We can't change our story as much as we would love to. Every day we wake up and hope it was a nightmare but it isn't. What we can do is help others by stopping this story happening to someone else's family. We have continued to raise awareness of the dangers of allergens and hope we will make business owners and their staff think about their actions. No-one wants another tragedy to happen.
