JAKARTA Yula Yudistira, a resident on Jalan Cibanteng 3, Rawa Badak, Koja, North Jakarta, again told about the fire incident that claimed four lives, consisting of husband and wife and two children, on Friday, November 3.

Yula revealed that the moments of Didik (40), Nisa (30) and her two children, Fatin (9) and Fatih (2), were trapped in the burning house.

"I saw the victim when he was about to leave the house. At that time his wife was carrying her first child (Fatin). Her husband carried a small one (Fatih)," said Yulaa Yusditira when met at the location, Monday, November 6.

In line with other residents, Yula also said that the four victims could not leave the house because of large logs such as burning blocks, suddenly falling covering the exit of the house.

"So he (the victim's family) returned to his house. After that I didn't look anymore, because I saved myself," he said.

The burning of 5 houses on Jalan Cibanteng 3, Koja, North Jakarta, on Friday night, November 3, still leaves sorrow. A total of 4 people died, consisting of husband and wife Didi (40) and Nisa (20) as well as their two minors, Fatin (9) and Fatih (2).

Grief still surrounds the residents of Cibanteng. How not, the fire crushed 5 houses in a narrow alley.

When visited the location of the incident, the alley to the victim's house was still installed with a plisi line. How ironic it is, the alley to the victim's house is very narrow. The width is no more than 1 meter. So that if two people enter or cross the alley, then both of them have to walk tilted.

Looking at the end of the alley, several houses of fire victims were seen that had been damaged. There was no activity in the dead end alley.

Meanwhile, residents of houses affected by the fire were taking refuge in a mosque not far from the location of the fire.
