This is the first picture of the tragic mother whose three young children were killed by their father before he took his own life.Angelika Swiderska is being comforted by her brother and sister-in-law as she comes to terms with what friends have called an ‘unspeakable tragedy.’Her ‘depressed’ husband Piotr Swiderski killed the three boys at their semi-detached home in Staines-upon-Thames, Surrey, before taking his own life.Angelika, who ran a local cake business, had recently returned to her native Poland to visit family and friends.She told neighbours on her return about her husband of five years being ‘depressed.’Police have confirmed they have had prior contact with the family in August 2023 and referred themselves to the Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC).The bodies of the children – children Dominik, three, and two-year-old twins Nikodem and Kacper – were discovered at the weekend in the quiet suburban street.

He loved us with all his heart and would have done anything for us. The children doted on their daddy.’Our boys were happy, active children, full of life and happiness. They were always smiling and even when I looked sad, they would say ‘Mummy, smile like us’.’We are grieving for them all and would like to ask for privacy as we try to understand why this tragedy happened.’I would like to say a huge thank you to all our community for all the messages of condolence, flowers, cards, and teddy bears and for all the kind words about our family.’Police have said there was no third party involved and the cause of death of all three has not yet been revealed.Post-mortems are due to be carried out on all three and an inquest will be held at a later date.

I do not know them, I only hear the noise in their garden. Recently that has been BBQs and lots of adult laughter.’I thought there were more than two families there, but I don’t think there was.’I don’t know them. There is a trampoline from the end of the garden which I can see from my window and sometimes you would get a lot of noise coming in, kids screaming with happiness.’Although their garden backs on to mine, I didn’t know them. I have heard that the mother went away to Poland for a week’s holiday and when she came back husband’s in depressed-mode.’While many on the street did not know the family well, some would see the children’s mother taking them out and about in her car.Piotr, according to social media, graduated from university in Krakow in 2017. That same year, he shared photos of himself and Angelika captioned ‘it’s worth driving many kilometrers to see her smile’.DCI Gareth Hicks, who is leading the police investigation, said: ‘This is a truly tragic incident and a thorough investigation is underway to establish exactly what happened.’We would like to thank the local community for their support and understanding whilst we have been conducting our enquiries.’
