A London property firm has been charged with corporate manslaughter after two Polish workers fell to their deaths from a flat in London’s exclusive Cadogan Square.
Tomasz Procko, 22, and Karol Symanski, 29, died when a balcony collapsed as they were trying to hoist a sofa from the pavement to a first-floor window.
The Crown Prosecution Service has now charged Martinisation (London) Ltd with corporate manslaughter health and safety offences, while company director Martin Gutaj has been charged with two health and safety offences.
Former England football manager Sven-Goran Eriksson and ex Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho once had homes in Cadogan Square, where the average property price is £5.7 million.
Zoe Martin, of the Special Crime and Counter Terrorism Division, said: “I have issued a written charge and requisition to Martinisation (London) Ltd in respect of two health and safety offences and offences of corporate manslaughter.”
