The investigation into the Gul Plaza tragedy has been further expanded, while authorities have decided to conduct chemical examinations of samples taken from the bodies of the deceased to thoroughly determine the causes behind the devastating fire.
According to sources, laboratory tests will be carried out to assess whether any chemical substances were present inside the building, while the unusually rapid spread of the fire will also be examined as part of the investigation. For this purpose, samples will be collected from Gul Plaza for chemical analysis, and statements of individuals associated with the market will also be recorded.
