The blaze occurred at Rong Beer Na Lat Phrao, a beer hall and live-music venue, on 12 July, also injuring over 70 people, 24 critically. Investigators suspect an overloaded electrical system as the likely cause, noting the venue had applied for less electricity than it was drawing and reportedly carried out unauthorised electrical work.
