The fire brigade investigation report had revealed that the fire originated from the charcoal embers used for hookah smoking in Mojo Bistro and then spread to the "1 Above" pub on the floor above.
The fire department report is in contrast to earlier reports that indicated that the fire started at "1 Above".
