Fatal fire in perfume warehouse

One worker was killed and four others suffered severe breathing problems after a fire broke out in a perfume warehouse in Ajman’s Al Jarf industrial area.

Firefighters extinguished the blaze inside 30 minutes preventing it spreading to other buildings nearby but the incident caused Civil Defence officer Lt-Col Jamal Hassan to announce there would be an increase in surprise inspections of premises storing flammable substances.
