TRAGIC Awaab Ishak's father says he believes he wasn't treated as a human being' as he pleaded for help while his family was trapped in a flat riddled with deadly mould.
The toddler died aged two following prolonged exposure to mould at a Rochdale Boroughwide Housing (RBH) flat on the Freehold estate.
Last November, his family's plight became the focus of a nation's fury after an inquest into Awaab's death uncovered the social housing landlord's shocking failure to act for months before tragedy struck.
In the year since, a campaign to change the law - to make sure no family loses a child in such unthinkable circumstances - has been successful.
Faisal Abdullah, Awaab's father, told the M.E.N it was a 'good feeling' when he and his wife Aisha Amin were finally heard.
Earlier, as the tragedy unfolded, he said he felt powerless.
