ALOR SETAR: A fire, which was believed to have started by a spilled kerosene lamp, razed a wooden house and killed its 63-year-old female occupant in Kampung Padang Putih in Langkawi.
Siti Rahamah Ab. Rahim’s charred remains were found in the living room following the fire which started at about 5.45pm on Friday.
Kedah Fire and Rescue Department public relations officer Supt Nor Hafizah Mohammed Lukman said the house was already burnt down when firemen reached the scene.
Siti Rahimah’s brother Idris said the house was his family’s ancestral home and his unmarried sister had been staying there on her own for quite some time.
