Amid intensified efforts to investigate the gruesome game zone fire incident in Rajkot, the first purported CCTV footage from the accident site has been released.
According to the visuals captured in the CCTV footage, the fire which initially broke out in the extension area due to welding work, engulfed the whole building in flames, due to the abundance of flammable materials at the site, which help the fire to quickly spread throughout the gaming zone and thus claiming 27 lives.
Meanwhile, it is pertinent to note that in a latest update in the case, the police on Sunday arrested the manager of the TRP game zone, Nitin Jain, and one of the facility's partners, Yuvraj Singh Solanki.
Speaking to the media, Raju Bhargava, Police Commissioner of Rajkot, said, "Till last night, we had recovered 27 dead bodies, which were shifted to Civil Hospital. After taking DNA samples, they were sent for analysis to FSL, and the process of matching them is still ongoing. An FIR was registered against six people under IPC sections 304, 308, 336, 338, and 114. Manager Nitin Jain and Yuvraj Solanki have been arrested. Special teams are working to arrest the other accused."
