SINGAPORE: Investigations into the suspected gas explosion tied to the deaths of a Singaporean man and his wife in Italy are ongoing, as their ashes were brought back to Singapore for memorial services on Monday (April 7) and Tuesday (April 8).

The investigations involved a range of technicians who installed and maintained the liquid petroleum gas system that powered the heating and kitchen of the couple’s Molazzana villa, which was reduced to rubble after a suspected malfunction to the system led to the explosion late on Dec 21, 2024, Italian media reported.
