Updated | By Lauren Beukes
A committee of inquiry is
being established to probe the deadly Marshalltown fire in central
Johannesburg.

Gauteng Premier Panyaza Lesufi says investigators will among other things get to the bottom of yesterday's devastating blaze and identify the culprits behind hijacked buildings.
75 people burned to death in the five-storey structure that had been illegally occupied by squatters.
In the meantime, they're trying to source temporary shelter for the survivors.

"They are going through the process of setting up an investigation and we have to get to the bottom of what has caused this fire."
