In a prompt display of crisis management, a fire that erupted in the Supreme Court complex was swiftly extinguished, averting potential catastrophe. The incident occurred in the waiting area situated between Court Number 11 and Court Number 12. It is believed that an electrical short circuit sparked the blaze.
Witnesses reported that the fire started suddenly, with smoke quickly filling the space. However, the presence of mind and quick actions of security staff and other personnel on-site ensured that fire extinguishers were deployed effectively to control and eventually extinguish the fire.
The incident led to a brief interruption of judicial proceedings, particularly in Court Number 11, where sessions were temporarily suspended to ensure everyone’s safety. Smoke continued to loom in the area for some time after the fire was put out, prompting further safety checks and ventilation efforts.
Officials have stated that the fire was minor and there were no injuries reported. The Supreme Court administration has announced that an investigation will be conducted to ascertain the exact cause of the fire and to evaluate further safety measures to prevent such incidents in the future.
