Pradeep, father of Srihari, a 27-year-old victim in Kuwait's fatal building fire, tearfully recounted, "When I saw him, the face was completely swollen, and the nose covered with soot. I was unable to identify him." Srihari, who returned to Kuwait recently, worked in a supermarket while seeking a job in mechanical engineering. The fire, which claimed 49 lives in Mangaf, started early Wednesday, causing thick smoke that suffocated most victims in their sleep. Efforts are ongoing to repatriate Srihari's body to Kerala. The tragedy remains unconfirmed officially by Indian authorities, leaving families awaiting news amid profound grief.
