An eyewitness who owns a crockery shop at Gul Plaza recounted a terrifying escape during the massive fire. He and others were forced to flee for their lives, leaving their cars on the buildingโs top floor.
As they tried to exit, five or six women approached, pleading for help. Thick smoke forced the group back toward the shops, where other vendors were still closing up.
โThe building had caught fire several times before, so we initially thought this was normal,โ the eyewitness said. He explained that they eventually reached the mosque area, where a door leading to a ramp was fortunately open.
Because it was closing time, all main exits leading downstairs were locked. Only shopkeepers knew which doors were accessible, making the situation even more dangerous.
Over 100 motorcycles and seven cars were parked on the rooftop. As the fire worsened, everyone fled, abandoning their vehicles in a terrifying escape from the blaze.
The rescue operation at Gul Plaza has been underway for seven days. Recently, more human remains were recovered, bringing the confirmed death toll to 71.
Deputy Commissioner South, Javed Nabi Khoso, stated that the rescue operation has entered its final phase and is expected to be completed today.
According to official records, 77 people are still reported missing. Authorities have urged families with missing relatives to contact the administration.
The eyewitness described the panic, confusion, and fear during the fire. The combination of smoke, locked doors, and blocked exits forced shopkeepers and visitors into a terrifying escape that will be remembered by survivors.
Authorities continue to clear debris carefully while searching for missing individuals and investigating the fireโs cause. The tragedy highlights the urgent need for strict fire safety measures in commercial buildings.
