The latest person arrested is a student believed to be aged 26 or 27.
According to information leaked by police, he is suspected of being the person to whom the 24-year-old owner of the property on Papadiamanti Street gave his keys. He allegedly then passed them to the couple accused of carrying out the arson attack.
The 24-year-old property owner, who was arrested a week ago along with the alleged perpetrators, was remanded in custody on Thursday.
During his testimony, the 24-year-old reportedly claimed that he had given the keys to the property to a friend and did not know how they came into the possession of the 29-year-old and 26-year-old accused of the attack.
