The long-serving governor of the Russian region where a shopping mall fire left dozens of people dead has resigned.<\/p>\n

Aman Tuleyev said stepping aside from governing Kemerovo was “the right, conscious and only true decision” following the disaster.<\/p>\n

He announced the move in a video address posted on the regional administration’s website.<\/p>\n

Last month’s fire killed more than 60 people, most of them children.<\/p>\n

Thousands of people protested in the aftermath of the tragedy over alleged safety failings at the Winter Cherry mall.<\/p>\n

Investigators say the fire alarm was broken and exits were blocked – and that security guards, who were supposed to help with any emergency evacuation, were among the first to flee when the fire broke out.<\/p>\n

Many children became victims because they were using entertainment facilities at the top of the mall, including a cinema whose doors are said to have been locked.<\/p>\n

Investigators are looking at whether the fire could have been started by an electrical short-circuit or arson in the children’s play area.<\/p>\n

President Vladimir Putin – who visited Kemerovo in the wake of the fire – blamed “criminal negligence” for the blaze.<\/p>\n

Mr Tuleyev – whose niece was reportedly killed in the fire – had been governor of the coal-mining region since 1997, AFP news agency reports.<\/p>\n
