Friday, 08 September 2023

Seven persons from the Korean embassy, who were staying in a flat were rescued safely, after a fire broke out at the flat of the Haryana Janpratinidhi (MLA) apartment in Gurugram's Sector- 28, fire officials said.

The fire was caused by an electrical short circuit in the AC, according to fire officials.

Two fire engines were pressed into service and the fire was brought under control after nearly an hour.

Officials added that items worth lakhs of rupees were gutted in the fire.

A platform vehicle was used to rescue seven people from the Korean embassy, including five women, from the flat.

It is being said that one of the women sustained a minor injury in her hand.

The fire officials said that they faced difficulties in talking to the people from the Korean embassy as there was no translator present at the spot. The case is being investigated.

"All seven people were taken out safely in about 15 minutes. Our team faced difficulties in talking to these people due to the translator not being present at the spot," an official said.

"Initial investigation revealed that the fire occurred due to a short circuit in the AC. The case is being investigated," Fire officer Nitish Bhardwaj said.
