Tejal described the night the disorder broke out as “very distressing” and “one of the worst nights I’ve ever had”.

“We were in shock, we just couldn’t process what was happening.

“I don’t feel like living in Belfast anymore because of all of this. I moved here for work, I had a fantastic year and then this happened, I just don’t feel like I can stay here anymore,” she told the programme.

When they were evacuated from the building they sought refuge at the home of SDLP MLA Matthew O’Toole then spent the night at the Whiterock Leisure Centre.

When they returned to their home, Nishath described it as a “horrific thing to see”.
