\nA tragic incident unfolded when a \u2018gas pressure machine\u2019 installed in a house exploded in New Karachi area of Karachi city. As a result, one man was killed and six others were injured, while two houses and four shops were destroyed.
\nIn Karachi, residents in areas with low gas pressure often use small fish aquarium compressors to increase Sui gas pressure, a dangerous practice that often leads to deadly incidents.
\nAccording to details, the incident occurred in Ayub Goth when a machine used to improve gas pressure exploded with a horrible sound that was heard far and wide. Several people were buried under the rubble and were later rescued by locals and rescue teams.
\nA shopkeeper died in the incident, and his body was also removed from the debris. The injured included family members and passersby.
\nThe preliminary investigation report suggested that the incident occurred accidentally due to a machine installed in the house to increase the Sui pressure.
\nPolice officials have stated that a motor used to increase the pressure of Sui gas had been recovered from the affected building.
\nPolice suspect that the gas leaked from the motor filling the house and causing the explosion. At the time of the accident, labourers were residing in the building while the owners of the house were not present.
\nA house adjacent to the affected one was also damaged in the blast. Police and the bomb disposal squad have inspected the scene and launched an investigation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
