A four-year-old boy was charred to death in his room following a short circuit in the electric meter box in Bhayander on Tuesday.
The Mira Bhayander Municipal Corporation (MBMC) fire fighters suspect that a short circuit in the meter room may have caused the fire to spread into two hutments in Bhola Nagar, behind Shiv temple, Bhayander (west) at around 10 am. The boy, who has not been identified, was alone in the house when the fire broke out. A woman and a child in the neighbouring room were also caught in the flame. Their condition is said to be serious.
The Bhayander police said that the identities of the victims, including the dead is being ascertained. The child’s parents, daily wagers, are believed to have left for work. Police are waiting for them to get back home. Police said that they may be unaware about the fire in their hutment.
