Fire at Grenfel Tower It was June 14, 2017 when the Grenfel tower was wrapped in flames resulting in 72 people losing their lives. The iconic building had 24 floors, was 67 metres tall and housed residential apartments in North Kensington, western London. The cause of the fire was a defective refrigerator device. This is the most deadly fire in a housing building in Britain after World War II. In its final report, the investigation casts most of the responsibilities for the destruction on the companies that had undertaken maintenance and renovation on the outer lining of the tower, on the omissions of local and national authorities as well as on companies who fraudulently presented flammable investment materials as safe. For years after the fiery hell, survivors and relatives of the deceased sought those responsible for being brought to justice on criminal charges. However, while according to British police 58 people and 19 companies and organisations are under investigation, prosecutions – including homicide and fraud – have not yet been carried out due to the complexity and the need to take into account the investigation committee’s report. In Britain, according to government figures in July, 3,280 buildings of 11 metres or above still have unsafe investment, with restoration work not yet started in more than two-thirds of them.
