Defective wiring is suspected in the deadly South Korean hospital fire that killed dozens and injured more than 150, according to an article on the Channel News Asia website.
The blaze in a hospital in the southeastern city of Miryang killed at least 35 patients - mostly elderly women - and three medical staff.
Authorities are still investigating the exact cause of the hospital fire but preliminary on-site inspection has suggested possible defects in the wiring in the first-floor ceiling of what used to be an office pantry.
The hospital did not have fire sprinklers as it was not large enough to be required to install them under local safety rules.
