Today (Thursday, 11 August) the force announced a breakthrough.
A statement says: "A man we want to speak to in connection with the deaths of 39 people who were discovered in a lorry trailer in Grays in October 2019 has been detained in Romania.
"Marius Mihai Dragici, 48, has been detained by Romanian police in the city of Bucharest. It follows the execution of a European Arrest Warrant.
