A man, who suffered burn injuries in a gas leak explosion in the Kanchpur area of Sonargaon, Narayanganj on Saturday, died while undergoing treatment in Dhaka on Tuesday night.
The deceased was identified as Alauddin, 35.
He breathed his last around 8:30pm while receiving treatment at the Intensive Care Unit of the National Institute of Burn and Plastic Surgery, Dr Shawon Bin Rahman, resident surgeon of the institute, said.
He said four people were brought to the institute early Saturday after a gas line leak triggered an explosion at their home around 3am, reports UNB.
Of them, Alauddin sustained 40 percent burns, Jarina Begum 20 percent, Sathi Akter 12 percent, and four-year-old Saima 30 percent, the surgeon said.
All three are currently receiving treatment at the institute, he added.
The explosion occurred after gas accumulated inside the house, officials said.
