He also noted that fire service eventually “came in to survey the place and they left.”<\/p>\n

“As I speak there are small fires in the room so individuals are fetching water with buckets to quench the rest of the fires. Police have also come and the police commander for Somanya has been on the ground and they just took some pictures and then they left us,\u201d the eyewitness added.<\/p>\n
