According to the shop owner, Mr. Puthaness Inthama, 21, he was boiling a large pot of kratom water when the gas leak occurred. He, along with his father and mother, tried to stop the leak by covering the gas valve with a cloth. However, another gas cylinder nearby also started leaking, causing the fire to spread rapidly. The fire then burned Mr. Puthaness’s parents’ arms.
