Police are continuing investigations into the downtown Joburg blaze.
Over 70 people were killed and about 55 others were hospitalised.
Seven of the victims were children.
At the same time, people continue searching for loved ones, unsure if they made it out alive.
By Thursday evening, rescuers were wrapping up search operations before handing the scene over to police.
Authorities estimated more than “80 shacks” were set up inside.
“The fire spread very quickly, affecting different levels of the building, because of the combustible materials used,” said Emergency Management Services spokesman Robert Mulaudzi.
