What's wrong with Dominican wiring?(Especially with the way Dominicans do electrical wiring).
This may be a reminder to people to exercise caution when going to places like discos and night clubs to be sure they are aware of the location of the nearest fire exits. I have left many places in the DR when I have noticed what appeared to be too many people or too few fire exits. (Especially with the way Dominicans do electrical wiring). Obviously these people were prevented from escaping the fire.

There is no law that establishes closing hours for nightclubs. Obviously you refer to the illegal presidential decree, which violates article 4 + 8 of the constitution.If this in fact are the facts of the case then 9 people died because an owner decided to break the law. Now THAT, if true, makes this case a true, true tragedy beyond what is preceived.

And it is also obvious that the club was indeed closed when the accident happened and it has nothing to do with this decree, as Planner already pointed out. It seems that some people are not familiar with this kind of business. It is quite common the the employees sleep there.
In fact the accident would not have happened, if there would not be this illegitimate curfew, and the business had stayed open. Because in this case nobody would have been trapped sleeping.
I think Kaki in the use of 'suspicious' was referring to the hour that the fire happened and the supposed idea that the establishment was open later then the hours that the government has established that such establishments close.

I only referred to the statement "the owner decided to break the law", since there is no such law (Laws are issued by the congress.). I did not want to discuss the presidential decree here (even if it caused 9 casualties in this case), and it was not me who brought this issue up in this thread. I only tried to defed the owner against unjust accusations. This is a very tragic accident and the owner of the business is besides the 9 victims certainly among those most affected by this tragedy.Mortran I would suggest that if you should want to argue the constitution and laws that you start your own thread and not bring it into a thread dealing with such a tragic blunder. Especially after the facts of this case come to light. I only mentioned the ?presidential decree? as a possible reason as to the OP using the word ?suspicious? and did not mean or intend to start a debate as to the supposed illegality of such a decree. This is the reason this board has a ?debates? forum.
