The couple’s eldest daughter, Lim Yi Jun, 23, was not home as she is staying near her college in Cheras. It is believed that Lim could have rushed to wake up his sons in the next room before they all succumbed to the smoke. The early morning blaze yesterday was believed to have been sparked by a short circuit on the ground floor. Police, he said, believed that Lim had been trying to alert his sons as their bodies were found in the same room. The family, added ACP Moham­mad Azlin, was believed to have been trapped in by the iron grille on the windows.
