It seemed that the fire started spreading from the kitchen of the hotel, said Tehseen Ahmed.

Nothing is going to happen because the statement of the Chief Fire Officer (causes not clear) is blurring. If nothing has happened to Baldia Factory fire case – 260 people burnt alive – one can not expect anything.
