KATHMANDU: A man was burnt to death after a fire engulfed a three- storey house at Bangalamukhi, Balkot-3 on Bhaktapur on Friday.
The deceased has been identified as Uttam KC of Bangalamukhi, Balkot-3, police said.
The fire apparently broke out from a mosquito repellant coil.
At a time when the country is reeling under power cuts, the risk of fire has increased in the Valley due to electric short-circuit and use of mosquito coils during summer.
Further investigation into the incident is underway.
