ALOR SETAR: The charred bodies of two people found in a guardhouse, built from a shipping container, at Taman Bayam Indah, Lunas, Kulim, last night were believed to be lovers.
Kedah police chief Wan Hassan Wan Ahmad said the identities of both victims had not been determined yet because the bodies were badly burnt.
The male is believed to be in his 30s and the woman in her 20s. Based on the preliminary report from the fire and rescue department, we can conclude that there was no foul play.
“The male victim was believed to be working as a security guard there. Upon further inspection, we also found that the guardhouse was locked from the inside.
“Firemen were forced to break down the door to put out the fire,” he told a press conference here today.
The bodies were sent to hospital for a post-mortem, he added.
