* A Zimbabwean woman who said she lost her home and husband in London's Grenfell Tower fire has been found guilty of fraud. Joyce Msokeri filled a room at Kensington's Hilton hotel with donations after saying she was a grief-stricken victim of the disaster. Southwark Crown Court heard data showed her phone had never been used near the Grenfell site. Msokeri was convicted of three counts of fraud and a charge of possessing a false document.
