15 squatter houses razed
KUALA LUMPUR: A fire razed 15 squatter houses at Jalan Raja Muda Musa in Kampung Baru here.
No one was injured in the fire which started at 9.30am yesterday, said Kuala Lumpur Fire and Rescue Department operations management chief Ahmad Adli Abdul Rahman.
An eye-witness, Mohd Syawal Indra, 28, said: “I heard people screaming for help and quickly went to help put out the fire. We were successful in almost extinguishing the blaze at one point but gas cylinder explosions caused the fire to spread,” he said.
Second Finance Minister and Titiwangsa MP Datuk Seri Johari Abdul Ghani said all the victims would be temporarily accommodated at the People’s Housing Programme. – Bernama
