I got some information coming from the ATC who was on shift the day of the incident.

This is all I was told in brief :

Some weeks ago, Bristish charter, MD8x , lands midfield, brakes hard, turns sharply at end of runway while still braking hard, smoke starts coming off from aircraft (below I guess), ATC informs pilots about smoke and that they called airport fire brigade, pilot specifies that he does not need f.b., all ends well.

ATC said aircraft touched down way too late down runway 02.
