Friday 29th May 2015 The house in Mallard Close
A businessman has been found guilty of arson with intent to endanger life after setting fire to a house in Blackbird Leys.
Martin Nganga, of Tiverton in Devon, had denied pouring petrol into the hallway of a house in Mallard Close, Blackbird Leys, Oxford, in the early hours of January 29 last year and causing a blaze that forced tenants to jump to safety from first floor windows.
But a jury at Oxford Crown Court today found the 46-year-old guilty.
The court had heard how one of the residents of the house was Nganga's best man Peter Kiriamburi, whom Nganga believed was having an affair with his wife Lilian Kibunja.
