The fire which gutted the Dhiraagu building in Thaa Veymandhoo has been confirmed as a case of arson by police.
The police said there was signs that the door had been forced open, which led them to believe the fire was deliberately lit.
Marketing and communications manager for Dhiraagu, Mohamed Mirushaan, said the fire had crippled all forms of communication on the island.
No one has been arrested so far and police are currently investigating the case.
