The possible cause of death of the victims during the preliminary investigation was thought to be LPG- gas poisoning (cooking gas).
This assumption however turned out not be the case after an in depth investigation done by the Forensic Department.
The Investigation showed that the victims had died as a result of carbon monoxide poisoning. This gas was caused by a generator that was used the night before as an electricity supply for their building where they operated a small bar and shared a living area. The generator was running during the night in the enclosed building. This odourless and colourless gas seeped through the openings and cracks of the building finally reaching the bedroom where the victims were found.
The police department is hereby sending out a very serious warning to the general public informing them that they should avoid operating any type of gasoline or diesel machinery in an enclosed or unventilated building. The gases coming out of the exhaust of these engines are mostly odourless, colourless and very hazardous to your health and can lead to ones death.
