Police told local media that all five family members were sleeping in the same room on Monday night and police were called to the property after extended family members raised the alarm when they failed to wake up on Tuesday morning. DS Uddin also told WalesOnline: "After discussing the overall situation with the doctors and inspecting the scene we believe this may have been a case of poisoning. The investigation is ongoing into whether it is poisoning or something else.": "Clearly this is a worrying and tragic event. Everyone I have spoken to in the community speaks very highly of the family and our thoughts are with them.
"There is also a great deal of concern because many people from Riverside go to Bangladesh on a regular basis. I hope that the authorities are able to get to the bottom of this as quickly as possible."
