She finally entered the premises from the other side around 2.22am, the footage shows. No flames, smoke or any visible sign of fire can be seen in the footage at that point.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"10\"\/>Moments later, a dog lying outside got up and peered through the gate before moving to another spot on the premises. Around 2.24am, a bright flash and burst of light were seen from inside the building. While the dog again rushed back towards the gate, the woman was seen exiting through the same side.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"12\"\/>Analysing the footage, investigators have noticed movement inside the building before the flash and are examining if it was linked to the fire. \u201cWe are investigating whether she had any connection to the incident and if there was any element of sabotage,\u201d an officer said. &#8220;There is also a possibility that she might have come to meet someone and left after the blaze broke out. Teams are trying to trace her and the circumstances will become clearer once she is located,\u201d he added.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"16\"\/>Deputy commissioner of police (southeast) Hemant Tiwari said, \u201cWe have taken cognisance of a video being circulated in connection with the fire incident. <!-- -->The matter is being investigated from all possible angles.\u201d Police are questioning local residents to ascertain whether anyone had seen or recognised her.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"20\"\/>A Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL) team, along with <a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/topic\/delhi-police\" styleobj=\"[object Object]\" class=\"\" commonstate=\"[object Object]\" frmappuse=\"1\">Delhi Police<\/a>, has conducted a detailed inspection of the building, particularly the ground floor and stilt parking area where the fire is believed to have originated Friday. Investigators searched for traces of flammable chemicals and collected burnt materials. <!-- -->Officials said the forensic report was expected to provide crucial clues about the possible cause of the fire.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"26\"\/>Police are also probing whether a blast in one of the vehicles might have triggered the fire before it spread through the building. Police suspected Friday that an electrical short circuit, possibly linked to an electric scooter being charged, triggered the blaze.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"28\"\/>According to police, a PCR call reporting the fire was received at around 2.31 am<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"30\"\/>Sourabh Sharma, a resident who claimed to have made the first call to the fire department after being alerted by his daughter, said, \u201cIf the woman had noticed the fire, she should have alerted the residents or raised an alarm. <!-- -->This needs to be investigated\u201d.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"34\"\/>Meanwhile, the postmortem of the three deceased \u2014 Pankaj (28), his sister Soni (20) and their maternal grandmother Sushila (70) \u2014 was conducted Saturday. A relative of the family said Guddi, Pankaj\u2019s mother, remained critical, while his sister Moni was recovering.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"36\"\/>Three sisters Mumtaz, Kareena and Seema were also injured in the incident.
