The two storey building was occupied by Rahim, his father, niece and her baby. He said nothing in his house was insured.

Neighbours said they saw smoke coming from the building and the fire Service Station that is located in Diamond Housing Scheme was notified. The residents are upset over the time the fire tender arrived on the scene. [Tracey Khan – Drakes]
