Relatives of victims of the deadly Kemerovo shopping-center fire in Russia’s Siberia region have filed official complaints with prosecutors alleging that “inaction” by fire crews and others contributed to the blaze’s high death toll.
“In their view, due to the inaction of firefighters and police, people were killed — they lacked the necessary equipment and skills,” the Interfax news agency quoted a spokesman for regional prosecutors as saying on March 29.
