Commission names the likely cause of the deadliest fire in Hong Kong's history
An independent commission has concluded that the fire at the Wang Fuk Court residential complex, which killed 168 people, may have started from an unextinguished cigarette. There is no direct evidence, but circumstantial evidence points specifically to this scenario; other causes have been ruled out. After the report was published, Hong Kong's housing secretary resigned.
