After 10-year probe, police recommend charging 54 people, 20 organisations over Grenfell Tower blaze
- Almost a decade since London's deadly Grenfell Tower fire disaster, police have asked prosecutors to consider charging 54 people and 20 companies and organisations.
- Seventy-two people died, including 18 children, after a refrigerator electrical fault sparked a fire that ripped through the 23-storey social housing building in North Kensington in June 2017.
- The public inquiry's final report in 2024 blamed the disaster on failings by the government, the construction industry and, most of all, the companies involved in fitting the exterior with flammable cladding that had been marketed as safe.
