The Latvian president has described the collapse of a supermarket which has claimed the lives of at least 54 people as "mass murder" of innocent civilians.
The remark by Andris Berzins came as the third and final part of the roof of the building in the capital, Riga, caved in on Saturday, prompting a fresh search for up to 10 people. Only the four walls now remain. The further collapse caused panic in a neighbouring shopping centre which shook violently and shoppers ran into the street fearful that it too would come crashing down.
Officials have said that soil and other material being used to build a garden on the roof might have caused the collapse last Thursday. At the time the disaster was made worse by the automatic doors to the supermarket jamming shut. Some 40 people were wounded, including 13 firefighters, and 23 people remain in hospital.
