The suspects came with explosives and targeted a section of the roof of the facility.
While the extent of the damage caused by the arson had not been ascertained by our correspondent, it was learnt that sensitive court materials and documents, including files, were burnt.
When contacted, the police spokesperson for the state command, Micheal Abattam, confirmed the incident and disclosed that the fire had been put out.
