"A woman has issued an urgent warning to Christmas shoppers about the dangers of modified e-bikes and batteries after losing her sister in a tragic fire. Ehsia Johnson-Mall, lost her beloved sister, Natasha, her friend Karlo and their two dogs, Tyagi and Medusa, one year ago after the battery of a self-converted e-bike caught fire whilst on charge overnight at their home in Coventry."
"It is believed the battery attached to the converted bike was purchased via a private seller on an online marketplace. Ms Johnson-Mall heartbreakingly said her life will never be the same without her sister, who she believes would have been so scared during her last moments. The bereaved sister would do anything for one more second with Natasha, to give her a kiss and a cuddle and share the good news that she would be an aunt."
