Mymensingh Filling Station Fire: Death Toll Rises to 3
The death toll from the fire at a filling station in Mymensingh Sadar has risen to three, following the death of another victim early Tuesday.
The deceased, identified as Tofazzel Hossain, 45, an employee at the filling station, succumbed to his injuries while undergoing treatment at the National Institute of Burn and Plastic Surgery. He was the son of Abdus Salam from the Rahmatpur area.
Shafiqul Islam Khan, Officer-in-Charge of Kotwali Model Police Station, confirmed that Tofazzel, along with three other injured victims—Quamrul Hasan, 35, a restaurant owner; his wife Shumi Akter, 30; and Abdul Malek, 50—had been rushed to the hospital’s Intensive Care Unit.
The fire, which broke out on Monday at the Azahar filling station on Rahmatpur Bypass Road, also claimed the lives of two others: Himel, 30, from Kichmot village, and Abdul Kuddus, 85.
A three-member investigation committee has been formed to probe the cause of the deadly fire.
