Engineer's family want answers over pop-up urinal death

Available for over a year

The family of a man killed in a freak accident more than a year ago say they are still looking for answers. Kevin Holding, 60, was crushed when a pop-up urinal he was working on in Soho dropped suddenly, on 27 January 2023. His daughter Karlie, 36, described him as "the life and soul of the family and the glue that held us together". The Met Police admitted it "has not provided the family with the support they would expect during the past year". In an exclusive interview with the 麻豆社, Ms Holding criticised a lack of communication from the authorities, saying: "I wouldn't want any family to go through how we've been dealt with." 麻豆社 Radio London's Harry Low has the story.
