Grenfell Tower victims formally identified rises to 66
- Published
Sixty-six victims of the Grenfell Tower fire have now been formally identified, police have said.
The total number of estimated deaths is 80 - although police said earlier this week the figure may be lower because of some potential cases of fraud.
The latest victim of the 14 June blaze to be named was six year-old Yaqub Hashim, who lived on the 22nd floor.
In a statement, his family described him as "our energetic, sporty, funny, smart and cute boy".
His parents, Nura Jamal and Hashim Kedir, his 13-year-old sister Firdaws, and his 12-year-old brother, Yahya, had already been confirmed among the dead.
The total of 66 includes baby Logan Gomes, who was stillborn in hospital on 14 June.
Police say 33 of the people who have been formally identified have not been named at the request of their families.
The Metropolitan Police also said it may consider individual as well as corporate manslaughter charges in its criminal investigation.
