Authorities say a Romanian nurse has been detained following a blaze that killed five newborns at a maternity hospital in Bucharest.
A court is expected to rule Tuesday whether nurse Florentina Carstea will remain imprisoned for 29 days pending trial.
Prosecutors investigating the August 16 blaze said Carstea was missing from duty when the fire started, leaving unattended the intensive care unit for premature babies.
The investigation also revealed an improvised electrical wiring in the unit.
Prosecutor Marius Iacob said other people might be charged in the case.
The fire caused widespread indignation in Romania, where health care is understaffed and underfunded.
