Re: the fire Maybe suspicious maybe not. In a foundry operation using huge amounts of iron and steel at 2500+ temps plus oxygen other chemicals and enough electricity to power a small town, there is always a risk of fire. Fighting such a fire requires evacuation, fumes could actually kill people in a good radius. Demolition followed by site cleanup is part of making it safe.

Timing is the most suspicious: connected to CF, CF doing poorly, therefore any bribes paid will not be recouped, business may fail would be the logic. Re: connections via corporate agents, registrations addresses etc. Are these connections merely because of using typical business service agencies who provide legal presence, addresses, and legal shells to 100's of business clients? If so, the connections are probably bogus, due to coincidence. For example, how many other options than the one chosen do the companies/people have to get the same service in the same area? Is it like being connected by buying groceries at the only store in town? Or by buying crack in the same back alley? Convince yourself, and us, which it is.

I find it totally plausible that a crooked CF crony would pull an insurance scam in this timeframe, rats leave sinking ships...
