Suspects face up to 23 years in prison in Esenyurt fire probe

The Bakırköy Public Prosecutor's Office prepared the indictment, which includes a report prepared by inspectors appointed by the Labor and Social Security Ministry. The inspectors identified several regulation breaches by the construction company in terms of safety. An electrical system in the tent that caught fire was improperly installed, which the inspectors believe to be the main cause of the fire. Other failings listed by the inspectors were no emergency exits in the tents or prefabricated buildings on the construction site and no firefighting equipment or precautions taken against a possible fire in the tents.
