Two companies and a site manager have had sentences handed to them after more than 200m2 was exposed to the public: Ali Raza Baig was the site manager responsible for the public asbestos exposure, with failings also attributed to Sohan Group Limited, the client for the project, and Maize Metals Limited, the company contracted for demolition works.
