A reliable source told newsmen that the generator was purchased by the family on Monday, and the unfortunate happened on weekend, when they put it on overnight.
The deceased was said to have called her elder sister on Thursday evening, saying that her baby was sick and that she would be bringing the baby to her.

They were later rushed to the FMC, where the wife later died, while the husband is said to be in a critical condition.
