Aliya Fakhri, the 43-year-old sister of actress Nargis Fakhri, has been arrested in connection with the deaths of her ex-boyfriend Edward Jacobs and his friend Anastasia Ettienne. The tragic incident occurred in Queens, New York, when Aliya allegedly set fire to a detached garage on November 2.

The victims, who died from smoke inhalation and thermal injuries, were trapped inside. Aliya has been indicted on murder and arson charges, facing a possible life sentence if convicted.

Despite the serious charges, Aliya’s mother has defended her, saying she doesnโ€™t believe her daughter would commit such an act. She mentioned Aliya’s struggle with opioid addiction following a dental accident, which may have contributed to her actions.
