The investigative authorities of the Fire Department are already investigating the circumstances of the start of the fire, while they are considering the possibility that the big fire in Varnavas started from two places at the same time (one at the beginning of the village and the other above the field of the area), with a difference of just of a few minutes, which of course points to arson, according to information from SKAI.
Fire in Attica: Complaint about a short circuit in a power pole in Varnavas
The Fire Service examines a citizen’s testimony that attributes the cause of the catastrophic fire, which hit North-Eastern Attica starting from Varnava, to a short-circuit of a PPC pole.
The 76-year-old, resident of the village of Amalthia, claims that the “fiery blaze” that started at 15:03 on Sunday, started next to his house, most likely from a short circuit in an electricity pole that has been placed in the corner of his residence. The 76-year-old gave a statement to the Fire Department’s Investigative Committee, with officials rushing to the scene to check if there are any findings that support his words.
As found on the wooden post there is a burnt spot. At this very point there was a wear on a metal support. A short circuit was created in the wires and, according to the 76-year-old, it is very possible that a red-hot piece of the wires fell on the dry grass, igniting the “inferno of fire”.
