Despite initial reports, it doesn’t look like the mall is opening tomorrow.

A spokesperson there told Doha News today that she “did not know” when Villaggio would re-open, and that shops are still waiting approval from Civil Defense.

A shop manager said the VIP section of the mall is ready to go, but Carrefour and other stores are not yet prepared to re-open.

Meanwhile, parents of the 13 children who were killed in the May 28 fire are calling for a boycott of the mall pending answers and justice.

Stay tuned for more information.
