Somebody has left an uninsulated live cable under the machine and the case of the machine brushed against it when you moved it.
Very unlikely to have done any damage to the machine itself, and probably just tripped the MCB or blown the fuse for that circuit.
Turn all the power off, fish the cable out, insulate the three wires properly, check the fuses/MCBs and turn on again.
Identify the electrician responsible and flog appropriately using a minimum of 15 lashes.
