Fire at Nampally Criminal Court in Hyderabad Controlled; Investigation UnderwayPreviousNext

A fire broke out on the third floor of the Nampally Criminal Court in Hyderabad early Monday, reportedly in the property room where seized items are stored. Firefighters responded promptly, controlling the blaze with minimal damage and no injuries. Preliminary investigations suggest a short circuit as the possible cause, with further inquiry ongoing. Separately, a fatal fire caused by a cylinder explosion occurred in Miryalguda, Telangana, killing three people, while a previous fire at a Hyderabad helmet bazaar was contained without casualties.
