The body of Mr Fiaz Ahmed Ansari (40) was discovered in the building during the site clearance after the explosion which destroyed the building and damaged a number of neighbouring properties.
Detective Chief Inspector Mick Beattie, said: “This was a devastating incident, the death of Mr Ansari will not only affect his family but two other families will have to live with the consequences of the defendants’ actions.
“Mr Ansari had been working at the kebab shop as a chef since October 2010. The business was suffering financial loss and the motive behind the incident was to claim on the insurance.
“The actions of the defendants for whatever reason have resulted in the tragic loss of a life.”

“You really have to be lacking in intelligence on so many fronts to do this. Taking out such a policy just before your shop blows up?! Really?! Forward planning mate; do it at least 6 months before you blow your shop up!”
