Hundreds of customers who had invested their life savings and committed future earnings to a Stewart Milne home are now asking if their new build homes with lengthy snag lists will ever be identified.

PC William Chan watched teenager Marcel Wochna (left) leap off a pontoon in Southampton after wrestling free of police but avoiding arrest because he didn't want to get into trouble with his mother, according to the hearing. PC Chan said he did not want to capture the boy because he was aware of the 2020 US tragedy that saw George Floyd murdered by an officer in Minneapolis. After watching Marcel swim away for a few seconds, PC Chan escaped the unstable floating platform because he was not aware of the safety precautions for working near water. A call was received by the Hampshire Constabulary officer at 10.53 p.m. on November 7, 2021, to look into alleged misconduct in Southampton's Cobden Bridge neighborhood.
