The remains of the fire ravaged property
Also affected by the blaze was a two-storey wooden and concrete building next door, owned by Rudolph Sam. Sam and three others lived there.
Due to radiated heat from the fire, one AC unit was slightly damaged and 10 metres of PVC guttering on the northern side of Sam’s house were also destroyed.
