Nah.. There was a small unlikned header that appeared in Khaleej times online. But i think they removed it afterwards. They'd mentioned something like the Room No. 50 where the fire originiated was completely destroyed or something like that.. Dubai is really funny.. I, like the rest of us, could even see a huge smoke coming up from the other side of creek.. but to the rest of the world its just all smoke no fire.. :|

k got it.. this is all that they've

Well as it turns out, the news was there in most of the leading newspapers and online. My search wasnt that good.. Thanks to someone (obviously a journo) who pointed out that the news was indeed widely covered. :oops: all that blame.. :|
