He said both victims, Robiul from Bangladesh and Jameel, who died in the incident had, passports and work permits.
He also said police had recorded a statement from a 38-year-old factory worker who witnessed the incident to assist in investigations.
“We are still investigating but we have ruled out foul play.”
On Monday, Robiul was killed and his two colleagues seriously injured after a bio-gas tank of the refinery exploded at 11.30am.
The three were employees of Kuala Lumpur-based engineering company, Green and Smart Sdn Bhd.
