By the time he realised what was happening, the fire had trapped his daughter Lam Yan Yi, 7, his granddaughter Ng Zi Xuan, 10, and his Cambodian maid Soh Srey, 29.

KUALA LUMPUR: He was watching television upstairs when he heard loud pops, but dismissed them as firecrackers.

Little did Shamsul Ng Abdullah, 59, know that an inferno was raging in the living room downstairs of his house in Taman Wangsa Permai in Kepong.
