It was one of the UK’s worst modern disasters - and yet seven years on, no one has been held accountable for the Grenfell fire. With the official inquiry’s final report set to be released, people are expecting answers. How did the London tower block catch fire so quickly in June 2017? Why did 72 people die? And who is to blame?
A police investigation is still ongoing, meaning the bereaved and survivors of Grenfell Tower will have to wait until at least 2027 before anyone can face charges. Chief Reporter Rob Mendick has been speaking to Flora and Hisam who were directly affected by the fire, Kimia Zabihyan (Advocate and Co-ordinator of Grenfell Next of Kin), and lawyer Imran Khan to hear what they think about the inquiry and what they want to see from the upcoming report into the tragedy.
