Following an extensive investigation into the tragic deaths of 12-year-old Sunnah Khan and 17-year-old Joe Abbess off Bournemouth beach on May 31, Dorset Police has announced that no criminal offences were committed.

The police probe had initially focused on determining whether the Dorset Belle, a sightseeing boat, had caused the dangerous sea conditions leading to the incident. However, authorities concluded that the vessel was not to blame. A man who was arrested on suspicion of manslaughter has been cleared of any wrongdoing and will face no further action.
