The community was left in shock after the blaze tore through a house in Plascom Road, East Park, in the early hours of June 25 last year.
Akashdeep Singh, 26, was trapped upstairs in the house with his mother and one of his brothers when the fire started. He suffered smoke inhalation and burns, and was rushed to hospital where he later died.
An inquest into the death of Mr Singh heard he suffered 50 per cent burns on his body.
