3 cottages gutted in Sajek fire

At least 3 tourist cottages have been gutted in a fire at Sajek valley in Baghaichhari upazila of Rangamati.

The fire broke out around 1:45am on Monday, said Anwar Hossain, officer-in-charge of Sajek Police Station.

The fire engulfed ‘Sajek Bilash’, ‘Gorba Cottage’ and ‘Kachalong Cottage’ and gutted those due to acute water crisis in the area, said locals.

On information a team of Fire Service and Civil Defence from Dighinala rushed there and doused the flame with the help of security forces and locals.

However, reason behind the incident could not be known immediately, said the OC.
