Kupwara, Jan 11 : A massive fire broke out in Kandi Karnah area of north Kashmir’s Kupwara district during the intervening night of January 10 and 11, gutting three residential houses and a cowshed, officials said on Sunday.

A cowshed owned by Danish Ahmad Qurashi was also destroyed in the blaze, resulting in the death of four cattle, they said. During the incident, an elderly man identified as Abdul Majeed Qurashi (80) collapsed after reportedly seeing his son’s house completely destroyed in the fire.
