A fire, suspected to be electrical in origin, gutted the home that was occupied by members of a North Sophia family, who lost all of their possessions.
At around 12.30 pm, an alarm was raised by a neighbour, who informed members of the family that fire was seen in the top flat of the home.
Within minutes, the fire razed the three-bedroom house, located at 35 Block R, North Sophia and occupied by Umawatie Premraj, 61, called ‘Chiney,’ her husband, Sasenarine Singh, 63, their daughter Chandrawattie (only name given), her husband, and their two children.
