`When we arrived on the scene, all the doors and windows were locked. The building was heavily secured...It was like a fortress, and the door on the upper western end of the building was heavily grilled' - Fire Chief Prince Dickenson

POPULAR broadcaster, television personality and Indian cultural promoter, Ms. Laxhmie Kallicharran was found dead after fire early yesterday morning swept through the upper flat of the two-storey house where she lived in Kitty, Georgetown.

Firemen summoned to put out the blaze at 219 Pike Street, Kitty, and neighbours had no idea she was in the house.

But when firefighters broke through a heavily grilled door to begin mopping up operations in the upper flat, they stumbled upon her badly charred body in a passageway.

Sources said she was lying face down, arms outstretched and was burnt beyond recognition.

However, her neighbour and friend of some 25 years, Mrs. Chandra Comacho was able to identify Kallicharran through a piece of jewellery she always wore on an arm
