Police also noted a &#8220;distinct smell of kerosene&#8221; in the apartment.<\/p>\n<p>Initial reports indicated that the fire may have originated from the flat&#8217;s air conditioning unit, noted TOI.. However, neighbours reported that the couple rarely used the AC, casting doubt on the possibility of a short circuit. Additionally, other household items were found intact, raising further questions about the fire&#8217;s cause and why only the bed was destroyed.<\/p>\n<p>The fire broke out 8 in the morning on the 10th floor of <a ref=\"dofollow\" data-ga-onclick=\"Inarticle articleshow link click#News#href\" href=\"https:\/\/economictimes.indiatimes.com\/topic\/riya-palace\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Riya Palace<\/a> building, located on 4th Cross Road at the Lokhandwala Complex, reported PTI.
