Two people have been burnt to death when fire destroyed and razed their four-bedroom house at Fiapre in the Sunyani West Municipality of the Bono Region in the early hours of Thursday, January 18.
The police had since deposited the bodies of Alex Antwi, 35, and a 17-year-old girl, only known as Adiza, at the Sunyani Teaching Hospital for autopsy.
Assistant Divisional Officer Grade II, Isaac Kwame Opoku, the Public Relations Officer of the Sunyani Municipal Command of the Ghana National Fire Service (GNFS), confirmed the death.
In an interview with the Ghana News Agency (GNA), Assistant Divisional Officer Grade II said the fire started around 1230 hours.
“When personnel of the Service got to the scene, the fire had assumed a dangerous dimension,” he said, adding that the cause of the fire is yet to be known.
