The victims include a 45-year-old woman, two children named Akhil and Puneet, a driver, and an individual named Imtiaz, while one body recovered from the cellar remains unidentified. Preliminary investigations by fire department officials suggest severe safety violations, as chemicals and furniture materials were allegedly stored illegally in the building's cellar. The building owner reportedly converted the cellar into a storage and residential space for the watchman's family to guard the materials.
