Two Al Baraka Buses gutted in midnight fire in Naogaon

Fazle Rabbi, Naogaon Correspondent: Two buses of Al Baraka Paribahan were partially gutted in a fire that broke out at Gabtali intersection in the bypass area of Naogaon town around 12:30am on Tuesday.

Firefighters rushed to the scene after receiving information and brought the blaze under control. However, a substantial portion of both buses was damaged in the incident.

According to local residents and police, three buses had been parked side by side at Gabtali intersection. Around midnight, flames suddenly engulfed two of them, prompting locals to alert the fire service and police.

Firefighters arrived promptly and managed to prevent the fire from spreading further. No casualties were reported, as there were no drivers or helpers inside the buses at the time of the incident.

Officer-in-Charge of Naogaon Sadar Model Police Station Mintu Rahman said police rushed to the spot after being informed of the fire.

He, however, ruled out the possibility of arson, suggesting that the fire might have originated from a mosquito coil.

Firefighter Ruhul Amin of Naogaon Fire Station said they responded to the call from local residents and brought the fire under control.

He added that the exact cause of the fire could not immediately be determined.

The actual cause of the incident remains unclear, as the police and fire service offered differing explanations regarding how the fire started.
