MANAMA: The General Director of Capital Governorate Police announced Saturday that evidence indicated that the Hussainiya (worshiping place) in Abubaham that caught fire, was the starting point used by thugs who were preparing to attack policemen with Molotov cocktails. Rioting and vandalism materials were confiscated at the scene after Civil Defence extinguished the blaze.
The General Director said the fire spread quickly because of the inflammable materials inside the Hussainiya. Forensic investigators found that the fire was caused by a short circuit.
