PATNA: Five members of a household amongst six have been killed and two others have been significantly injured following serial blasts in the home of a firecracker businessman in Bihar’s Saran district on Sunday.
A hearth broke out round 11.45 am in the home of Mohammad Reyazul Mian at Khodaibagh village, police mentioned. The blasts have been so highly effective that the three-storey constructing collapsed, police added.
The deceased have been recognized as Amina Khatun, her sons—Mulazim and Sabir Ali, Shahzad and daughter Yasmin.
The id of the sixth physique is but to be ascertained. An FSL workforce was requisitioned from Muzaffarpur to gather proof from the spot, Saran Superintendent of Police Santosh Kumar mentioned.
“The cause of the blasts will be ascertained after the FSL report is given,” he mentioned, including six hearth tenders have been pressed into service to douse the flames.
“Prima facie, it appeared that the explosions took place during the making of firecrackers in the house. The huge stock of explosive material used in making firecrackers came in contact with the fire, which led to the explosions,” Saran Deputy Superintendent of Police Muneshwar Singh mentioned.
“Six bodies were exhumed from the debris of the building. The death toll may go up as some people were believed to be under the debris. Further probe is on,” Singh added.
