A Hantsavichy entrepreneur Uladzimir Kandratsuik will have to spend about 15 thousand USD for repair works in his pavilion “Grocery” that burnt down on one of August nights. Our reporter Ales Litouchyk comes up with more details: “Rescuers think that the fire was caused by a short circuit. Kandratsuik admits that it could be arson. “The one who envies me is responsible for it”, - he said.

The entrepreneur showed the journalists two holes in the wall near the floor. The fire penetrated the building through them.
