Greenford boy arrested over Karan Cheema's allergy death

The mother of a teenage pupil who died of a severe allergic reaction to cheese at school is demanding answers from bosses as to how it happened. 

Karan Cheema, 13, became seriously ill at his school in Greenford, West London, in the middle of morning lessons.

Staff rushed to help the popular pupil, who was known to have allergies, but he died after being rushed to hospital. 

It has been claimed Karan was 'forced to eat' the cheese but others have said it was 'flicked at his face' while his mother claimed the food was 'rubbed against his neck'. 

Another boy was later arrested on suspicion of attempted murder.
