Murder of the Lowe family
On 5 August 2000, 26-year-old taxi driver Azhar Ali Mehmood started a fire at the Telford home of 16-year-old Lucy Lowe, with whom he had a sexual relationship since she was 14 and under the age of consent. The fire killed her and her unborn child, her 17-year-old disabled sister Sarah, and her 49-year-old mother Eileen Linda. Her 53-year-old father George survived, and Mehmood escaped with Tasnim, his baby daughter by Lowe.In October 2001, Mehmood was sentenced to three life sentences for three murders, plus a fourth for the attempted murder of George Lowe. He was denied parole in June 2020. The murder received attention for its possible connection to the Telford child sexual exploitation scandal, with an inquiry hearing that it was brought up by abusers to scare victims into silence.
