Five members of a British family were killed in a car crash on a pilgrimage to Mecca - but a one-year-old baby miraculously survived in the wreckage.
The three generations of the family were making the 3,000 mile trip to Saudi Arabia for the religious journey when their taxi crashed.
The only survivor of the horror smash was Mohammed Eisa Danial Hayat, one, who lost both his parents, grandparents and aunt in the crash.
Baby Mohammed was found being cradled in the arms of his dying grandfather in the crash.
Grandfather Shaukat Ali Hayat, 56, his wife Abida, 47, and their children, Mohammed Isshaq Hayat, 33, and Saira Zenub Hayat, 30, died in the smash. » | Emily Davies | Monday, February 11, 2013
