Prosecutors consider 23 criminal suspects over Hillsborough disaster
Hillsborough investigators have identified 23 criminal suspects over the disaster which left 96 people dead, a spokesman for the two criminal investigations into it has said.
The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) will now study files relating to the 1989 disaster.
Fifteen of the suspects relate to the Operation Resolve investigation into the causes of the disaster, while eight relate to the Independent Police Complaints Commission's (IPCC) probe into the alleged cover-up following the tragedy, in which 96 Liverpool FC fans died.
It came as the police watchdog's deputy chairman said investigators had looked for the "controlling minds" in an alleged cover up into what happened.
Rachel Cerfontyne said: "We have always said what we want to do was cast the net wide but actually what we've been looking for is the controlling minds.
"If there was a cover-up, and remember at this stage it's allegations of a cover up, then what we wanted to understand was who was behind that, who was making the decisions, who was giving the instructions and that is what we've been focusing on in the evidence gathering to submit to the Crown Prosecution Service."
The IPCC's eight suspects are all retired police officers, who served in either South Yorkshire Police or West Midlands Police - the force which investigated the disaster.

The watchdog has been considering offences including perverting the course of justice, conspiracy to pervert the course of justice and misconduct in public office.
Assistant commissioner Robert Beckley, head of Operation Resolve, said the 15 suspects identified by that operation included organisations, police officers and civilians.
He said investigators aimed to be "impartial and unbiased" in their work.
He said: " They've worked through the evidence and in their judgment, in our judgment, there's sufficient evidence for these 15 people and organisations."
Operation Resolve investigators considered offences of gross negligence manslaughter, perverting the course of justice, misconduct in public office and offences under the Safety of Sports Grounds Act 1975 and Health and Safety at Work legislation.
Ms Cerfontyne said she understood families of the victims may be disappointed after the watchdog decided not to investigate suspended South Yorkshire chief constable David Crompton.

LIVERPOOL, ENGLAND - APRIL 26: Some of the 96 candles in memory of the victims of the Hillsborough tragedy, sit on the steps of Liverpool's Saint George's Hall after today's Hillsborough inquest verdict on April 26, 2016 in Liverpool, England. The fresh inquests into the 1989 Hillsborough disaster, in which 96 football supporters were crushed to death, concluded today on April 26, 2016 with a verdict of unlawful killing, after the initial verdicts were quashed. Relatives of Liverpool supporters who died in Britain's worst sporting disaster gathered in the purpose-built court to hear the jury's verdict in Warrington after a 25 year fight to overturn the accidental death verdicts handed down at the initial 1991 inquiry.

LIVERPOOL, ENGLAND - APRIL 26: A banner reading Truth and Justice is hung from Liverpool's Saint George's Hall and illuminated in red after today's Hillsborough inquest verdict on April 26, 2016 in Liverpool, England. The fresh inquests into the 1989 Hillsborough disaster, in which 96 football supporters were crushed to death, concluded today on April 26, 2016 with a verdict of unlawful killing, after the initial verdicts were quashed. Relatives of Liverpool supporters who died in Britain's worst sporting disaster gathered in the purpose-built court to hear the jury's verdict in Warrington after a 25 year fight to overturn the accidental death verdicts handed down at the initial 1991 inquiry.

People react as they leave the coroner's court in Warrington, north-west England on April 26, 2016 1989 following the conclusion of the inquest into the 1989 Hillsborough disaster. The 96 Liverpool fans who died in Britain's 1989 Hillsborough football stadium disaster were unlawfully killed, a jury found Tuesday following the longest-running inquest in English legal history. After hearing more than two years of evidence, the jury also concluded that the behaviour of Liverpool supporters on the day did not cause or contribute to Britain's worst sports stadium tragedy. / AFP PHOTO / GEOFF CADDICKGEOFF CADDICK/AFP/Getty Images
