MUSCAT: Two people died in a fire that broke out in a two-storied house in Mabela in the early hours of Monday. The deceased have been identified as a 10-year-old child and an Asian domestic help. The child’s parents and two other children are undergoing treatment at a hospital. “An investigation is on to find reasons behind the fire. We think it could be because of overheating of an air-conditioner or a faulty device,” said First Lieutenant Khalid al Salti, Head of Public Relations Affairs, Public Authority for Civil Defence and Ambulances (PACDA).
