A 17th victim was discovered early Monday at the site of an Agouza night club that was targeted Friday and set on fire with a Molotov cocktail.
A security source said the family of a club worker reported his disappearance since the day of the attack. The source added that the missing victim was found inside a secret chamber in the club.
Three suspects arrested for perpetrating the attack told interrogators that bodyguards outside the nightclub had held them off on their way into the club before the situation developed into a brawl. They said they decided to seek revenge by throwing fire bombs at the club.
