A Lankan construction worker (27), is believed to have accidentally caused the fire by releasing a sky lantern in the vicinity of the oil storage facility.
It is believed that the sky lantern may have started the fire when it fell on the lawn of the oil storage facility, causing flames that later spread into the ventilation system of the oil tank.
