BINTULU, Feb 26 (Bernama) — Two young sisters were burned to death in a fire which destroyed their wooden squatter house near the Sebiew People’s Housing Scheme today.
Bintulu Police chief Supt Madang Usat identified the girls as Olivia Natasha Eddy, three, and Christina Christy, four.
He said they were at home alone during the fire, which occurred at about 1 pm, as their elder sister had gone to fetch their brother from school while their parents were at work.
The cause of the fire was being ascertained, he told Bernama.
Bintulu Fire and Rescue chief Di-Hata Gobel said they were alerted to the fire at 1.15 pm.
“The wooden structure of the house caused the fire to spread rapidly,” he said.
