India, July 27 -- A Delhi court on Monday granted bail to Kesar Negi, the cook employed at the Flourish B&B hotel in Malviya Nagar, where a devastating fire claimed the lives of 22 people.

While granting bail, the court observed that the forensic report determining the cause of the fire has not yet been submitted and hence criminal culpability cannot be attributed to the accused solely on the basis of a witness statement.
