Johannesburg fire: ‘I’ve never seen anything like this’

A South African firefighter said he had "never seen anything like" the fire which killed at least 74 people in a building in central Johannesburg.

Robert Mulaudzi is the spokesperson for the emergency services.

Officials say it is unclear what sparked the fire in the five-storey building, which had been abandoned but was being occupied by homeless people.
