A 68-year-old woman died after her blanket caught fire from a kerosene lamp at her house in Hatibandha upazila of Lalmonirhat district on Saturday night.


The deceased were identified as Oichon Bewa, wife of late Jamir Uddin of Burasardubi village.

According to locals, the blanket of Oichon caught fire apparently from a kerosene lamp and she couldn’t escape due to her old age.

Later locals brought the fire under control.
