Instead of opening all possible exit routs, they, probably closed them.

This what the management does most of the time. I hope they fry thd owners for this.

Now this will cause more violence down the road.

Factory fire kills over 100 in Bangladesh - The Times of India


DHAKA: Over 100 people were killed overnight after a fire engulfed a multi-story garment factory on the outskirts of Bangladesh's capital, Dhaka, officials said today.

The fire broke out in the ground-floor warehouse of the multi-storey Tazreen Fashion factory, 30 km north of Dhaka, last evening, trapping hundreds of workers on the upper floors.

"The toll exceeded 100, I fear toll could rise as bodies are still being retrieved," an army official told reporters.

Witnesses said the fire at the six-story factory in started on the ground floor and quickly spread to others parts causing the worst fire tragedy in recent years.

Fire service officials earlier said several workers of the factory were trapped inside and took shelter on the rooftop of the structure awaiting rescuers while efforts were underway to extinguish the blaze.

Television footages showed army troops and fire service rescuers bringing out bodies one after another from the debris as hundreds of people including relatives of the victims waiting outside.

Witnesses said the fire spread quickly, prompting army troops from nearby Savar Cantonment to join the rescue campaign.

RIP.

Politicians will be useless. The media must keep the focus on the investigation to make sure the owners/operators are held responsible.

Most of the garments owners are illeterate and first generation rich. They care less for the safety and think the luck will be always with them.

RIP.

Politicians will be useless. The media must keep the focus on the investigation to make sure the owners/operators are held responsible.

Nothing will happen. They will say, its all Allah's wish. and move on.
