While the numbers of victim fatalities rises....what is happening with the prosecution of the owner and manager/s....or is there to be no prosecution?

[RandolphGB]

Has anyone been bought to justice for this fire yet? The owners, managers? The local police, the local officials that received payments to turn a blind eye so it could operate illegally?
