Two-year-old twin brothers lost their lives in a fire that broke out at their residence in Sunder Nagar, Kacheguda, on Friday evening.
Police suspect a short circuit in an air-conditioner or electrical wiring may have triggered the blaze.
According to officials, the
twins, Raheem and Rehman, were asleep in a ground-floor room when the fire erupted around 4 pm.
Their father, Saifuddin Qadri, who works at a local mosque, was not at home at the time. The children’s mother was reportedly outside and rushed in after being alerted by their elder siblings.
