No one would ever guess it, but a warehouse big enough to park 25 double-decker buses inside, at an undisclosed location somewhere in London, has become an unlikely base for the police investigation into the Grenfell fire. The premises, in fact, resembles a branch of B&Q. The entire exterior of what remained of the 24-storey block, dismantled piece by piece for forensic analysis, is stored inside: cladding panels, insulation, doors, windows and every last nut, bolt and screw that was salvaged.

The village of Datchet is perched on the lush banks of the River Thames. On the opposite side, a little over a mile away as the crow flies, you can see Windsor Castle and, when there are no leaves on the trees, Adelaide Cottage, home to the Prince and Princess of Wales.

Ibrahim Bezati subjected his victim – in the words of the judge who jailed him for 17 years – to ‘every woman’s worst nightmare’. The 23-year-old was kidnapped from Bedford town centre one night, imprisoned in a nearby flat, forced to take cocaine then raped by Bezati and two fellow Albanians. After being held for three hours, and going into ‘survival mode’, she managed to escape and flag down a member of the public who contacted the police and her family.

On Facebook, where he has 1,500 followers, Robert Charles Albon is pictured in surgical scrubs: blue hospital gown and cap. But he is not a doctor or a medical professional. His attire, we can only assume, is to encourage women to see him as trustworthy and use his 'service' – which is fathering children, something he appears to have been frighteningly successful at. To date, Albon, who is in his 50s and now lives in the North East, claims to have 180 children all over the world. And counting.

Sadistic, cold-blooded, premeditated. The slaughter of three little girls in Southport was all of those things. Even now, though – especially after everything we have learned in the past week – one chilling fact is still hard to comprehend.

The Black Forge Inn in the heart of Dublin's Drimnagh neighbourhood has acquired a certain notoriety, for at least two reasons. One is that some of the city's most prominent gangland figures patronise the establishment, including members of the Kinahan syndicate. The Kinahans, for anyone who is unaware of their reputation, are the Irish equivalent of the Italian mafia or the Mexican cartels. The crime drama Kin, now streaming on Netflix, is said to be loosely based on them. The other reason?

Fahir Amaaz – the young man dressed in black pictured here going about his business in Rochdale – is a name that will probably mean little to most people. But almost everyone will remember the grainy mobile picture of him back in the summer, face down on the ground at Manchester Airport with an armed police officer's boot on his head. The clip was viewed by millions around the world.
