Elderly woman dies in Segamat fire, police suspect foul play

SEGAMAT: A 73-year-old woman was burnt to death after a fire gutted her home and four other houses in Bukit Siput here on Friday, in what police believe involved elements of foul play. The victim's charred remains were found in the kitchen of her home, which she shared with several family members. The fire, which began in their house, quickly spread and engulfed four neighbouring homes along Jalan Francis School. District police chief Superintendent Ahmad Zamry Marinsah said the incident is believed to have occurred around 4.15am when the victim's son-in-law noticed the garage of the house was on fire. He said the man immediately rushed to alert other family members and get them out of the house. However, the elderly woman re-entered the home to retrieve some belongings but never made it back out. "The woman is believed to have been trapped, and her charred remains were found in the kitchen. The fire involved five single-storey houses, all of which were completely destroyed. "In addition, two cars and two motorcycles were also burnt. The fire was fully brought under control by 8am. Police investigations have revealed elements of foul play," he said when contacted. Ahmad Zamry added that investigations are ongoing to determine the cause of the fire. Police have opened an investigation under Section 304(a) of the Penal Code for causing death without intent, and Section 436 for mischief by fire. "Anyone with information about the incident is urged to contact the nearest police station or the Segamat district police headquarters at 07-9324222," he said.
