SEPANG: Two brothers died in a freak accident after being electrocuted while bathing in a basin in the yard of their house at Kampung Teras Jernang, Bangi, near here, yesterday.

In a statement today, Sepang police chief Wan Kamarul Azran Wan Yusof said the two victims, aged 10 and 9, were the second and third of four siblings.

He said the father of the victims, a food shop operator, said his children were bathing in a basin in their house compound when the incident happened.

At that time, their father had gone out to buy things while their mother was in the kitchen. When the father found his sons, both were not breathing.

“According to the father, his children died due to an electric shock that flowed from a metal clothes hanger.

He said Tenaga Nasional Bhd said that there was friction from a wire on the side of the house and this caused the electric current to flow through the clothes hanger.

Wan Kamarul said the two victims were electrocuted when they came into contact with the metal clothes hanger when bathing.

He said there were also many metal items scattered around the house as previously, the victims’ father ran a workshop. After it was closed, unused items were brought back to the house.

Wan Kamarul reminded parents to ensure there were no exposed electrical wiring at home. - FMT
