A fire at a South Pattaya music studio killed a mother
and her 3-year-old daughter.
Kanjana Payupat died en route to Banglamung Hospital from
burns that covered most of her body. Firefighters later found the body of
her daughter in the recording area of the Music Studio in Duck Square.
Kanjara’s brother, Praipana, said the May 7 blaze broke
out in the back room studio and he called for help, knowing his sister and
niece were still inside.
More than 10 fire engines responded to the fire. Kanjara
crawled from the flames about 10 minutes after firefighters arrived.
The young girl’s American father was said to have returned to the United
States for an undetermined amount of time.
