Robina Qureshi, said: “It would seem Mears Group did not take any steps to raise the alarm when Mercy was not answering the door at the pre-arranged time for rehousing.
“Mears Group also did not provide an address which resulted in Eric not having basic contact information for his partner and child.
“This resulted in a baby being left without food and water for several days after the death of his mother.
“The circumstances surrounding this tragedy is indicative of wider systemic issues where refugees and migrants are left vulnerable by the state.
“We are grateful to the press, public and fellow campaigners for their support as we work to improve this flawed system but as we do this we cannot be drawn into speculation.
“It would therefore be objectively prudent and just for the authorities to conduct a fatal accident investigation into Mercy’s death and other deaths which took place while under the duty of care of the Home Office and the UK Government.”
