司法 · Grenfell investigationGrenfell: Police Seek Charges Against 54 People and 20 Organisations文字 2026年9月30日 下午3:06 [UTC]觀看逐字稿0:09Police seek Grenfell charges against 54 people and 20 companies and organizations.0:14The fire killed 72 people, but no charging decisions or prosecutions have been0:18announced.0:18Will the final police evidence lead to prosecutions?0:21And what must prosecutors decide first?0:23The Metropolitan Police submitted its final investigation file to the Crown0:27Prosecution Service on September 30th, 2026.0:29Prosecutors now have the final police evidence to consider, but the referral neither0:33establishes criminal guilt nor guarantees that anyone will be prosecuted.0:37The Crown Prosecution Service says it will make charging decisions before June 14th,0:412027, the 10th anniversary of the fire.0:44That commitment concerns decisions on charges, not completed trials, verdicts, or0:48sentences.0:49Corporate manslaughter and gross negligence manslaughter are among the potential0:53offenses.0:53The range also includes health and safety offenses, fraud and fraud-related0:57offenses, and misconduct in public office.1:00That does not mean every referred person or organization faces every offense.1:04There is no established final count of charges.1:07No verified list of the referred parties available here, and no established link1:10between particular allegations and particular proposed defendants.1:13That limit does not prove that every identity has been withheld everywhere.1:17The final files reached prosecutors within the police force's stated timetable.1:21The handover completes a consequential police step.1:24It does not complete the process of deciding whether anyone should face a criminal1:27court.1:28May's potential total was up to 57 individuals.1:31The final referral concerns 54.1:33The reason for that difference is not established.1:35It cannot be described as three people being cleared or three cases being dropped.1:39On May 19th, the police also said the investigation team had increased to 220 and1:44that all charging files were on track for submission by the end of September.1:48The handover fulfills that schedule.1:50The staffing figure remains a May's snapshot, not a verified September headcount.1:54Operation Northley has a reported police investigation cost of £150 million, with1:59the actions of 15,000 people and 700 organizations examined.2:03Those figures are not yet confirmed independently.2:06They measure the investigation's scope, not its proposed defendants.2:09Examining someone's actions does not establish suspicion or wrongdoing.2:13The spending is not compensation, a fine, or the cost of a future trial.2:17Bereaved families and survivors continue to demand justice for the 72 deaths.2:21Criminal accountability remains unresolved.2:23Each defendant and each proposed charge must meet an evidential requirement.2:28Prosecutors must apply the code for Crown prosecutors.2:31Its full code test has two stages.2:33With evidence considered first, there must be enough evidence to provide a realistic2:37prospect of conviction against each defendant on each charge.2:40The separate public interest stage is not itself a finding of guilt.2:43Police referral totals, therefore, do not dictate an identical set of authorized2:47prosecutions.2:49How the evidence will be assessed against any particular person or organization2:52remains unknown.2:54Companies' oral inquiry evidence was brought under protection in June 2020, changing2:58the earlier position.2:59On February 26th, the Attorney General had announced an undertaking protecting3:04individual witnesses against their inquiry evidence being used against them in a3:07future prosecution.3:09The original fact sheet specified Phase 2, Modules 1 to 3, and excluded3:13corporations.3:14On June 1st, then-Attorney General Suella Braverman extended the undertaking to3:19legal persons, including corporate entities.3:21Their oral evidence was protected from use against them in future criminal3:25proceedings.3:25The extension fact sheet also said legal persons could not refuse to answer3:29questions on the ground that their answers would risk self-incrimination.3:32Protection for particular testimony is not immunity from prosecution.3:36The original exclusion of corporations cannot be treated as the position after the3:40June extension.3:41But the complete rules governing pre-existing documents, independently obtained3:44evidence, and exceptions for false evidence are not established here.3:48Nor is it established whether the June extension retained exactly the original3:51module limitation.3:52It would be wrong to assume either that the inquiry's entire evidential record is3:56freely usable against every defendant, or that all of it is unavailable.4:00The undertaking does not establish that any particular proposed charge succeeds or4:04fails.4:05The answer is that the final police referral makes prosecutions possible to4:09consider, not certain to follow.4:11Which individuals and organizations will be charged, which offenses will be4:15authorized, and the announcement date remain undecided.4:18The next stated commitment is charging decisions before June 14th, 2027.閱讀文章事件時間軸HeyDex短片 ↗誰報導了什麼多家媒體報導的要點Deaths caused by the
