The tragic fire that killed 72 people at Grenfell Tower continues to haunt the family members of the victims years later. In light of the latest decision by the UK government to tear down the remaining building, Hamid Ali Jafari is now afraid that the tragedy will be forgotten.
Jafari, whose father was killed in the fire, expressed his concern over the government’s plan to remove the tower. “My dad has two cemeteries; one where we buried him and one is at Grenfell Tower,” he said. “When the wind blows around the tower, I can feel my dad.”
It has been eight years since the incident, and the impact of the loss continues to be felt by many. The government’s announcement of the tower removal has come as a shock to some. However, officials revealed that the decision was made after extensive evaluation and planning.
While expressing his apprehension about the possibility of forgetting the tragedy, Jafari acknowledged and appreciated the government’s efforts in addressing the cause of the fire. Going forward, it is hoped that adequate measures will be put in place to ensure the safety and well-being of all residents in the country.
