London:A 43-year-old man has been jailed in the UK for posting on Facebook a video and pictures of a victim of the massive fire that engulfed a 24-storey residential tower in west London, killing at least 58 people.
Omega Mwaikambo posted one video and two pictures of the body bag with the man inside and then later five pictures of the victim’s face and body after opening it to look inside.
He pleaded guilty at Westminster Magistrates Court to two counts of sending by a public communications network an offending, indecent or obscene matter, The Telegraph reported. Mwaikambo, who lives just yards away from the tower saw a body bag outside his flat and took the photos on his iPad and uploaded them to Facebook. (PTI)
