The bomb disposal unit says that the explosion occurred due to gas leakage in Golimar’s house. Waseem, who is among the injured, sets up food outside the house.
BDU said that Waseem prepared food at home during which the gas supply was suspended and Waseem mistakenly went to sleep without switching off the stove. By the time he woke up in the morning, the house was full of gas. As soon as the fire was lit, the house resounded with an explosion.
