Mehdi Amshar, chief executive of MFA Bowl, told Sky News that only two staff members are unaccounted for.
“All our staff, the rest of our staff, are safe and they made sure that all the customers have left the premises so everybody is in safety, with the exception of the two people who are, we know that are missing and we assume that they are the two that are still inside the premises because the manageress has done the check but those two people are not accounted for.”
