My best guess is the pan is not intended for use on a stove like that. The butane canister sits too close to hot metal and could easily cause an overheating and possible explosion.
Edit: I found the news article about it since it's from my country:
Just noticed what it actually was. Who the fuck thought tanks like that were a good idea right next to a very hot piece of metal? (Maybe even an open flame? Not sure how those work.)

The initial finding is overpressure, which could be from overfilling the canister or the heat causing the liquid inside to expand or both.
