The authorities were concerned with the cause of the fire outbreak and started the investigation. It had been revealed that the fire was actually set up by three Ethiopians.
The security spokesman at the Ministry of Interior has assured that the three infiltrators set the fire and then ran away. They had a dispute and thereby set the fire. They have been arrested and trail according to the law of the Kingdom.
