Tragic Garment Factory Blaze in the South Asian nation Has Taken a Minimum of 16 Lives
A minimum of 16 individuals have perished after a enormous fire started at a clothing factory in Bangladesh, with authorities cautioning that the fatality count could rise.
16 bodies have been found but were burned unrecognizable, the fire service stated.
Heartbroken relatives gathered outside the multi-story factory in the Mirpur district of Dhaka on that day in search of their loved ones still missing.
The fire, which broke out at the factory around noon, was put out after three hours. But an neighboring chemical warehouse kept burning, authorities said.
Until 21:00 local time (15:00 GMT) yesterday, the fire at the chemical warehouse had not been fully extinguished, journalistic accounts said.
Fire department authorities have not ascertained which of the two buildings ignited initially.
Per witnesses, the chemical warehouse contained bleaching powder, plastic and hydrogen peroxide, all of which can accelerate fires. Plastic also emits toxic fumes when burned.
Law enforcement and armed forces are still trying to locate the proprietors of the factory and the warehouse, emergency services head the department director informed journalists.
An inquiry on whether the warehouse was running according to regulations is also currently underway, he noted.
Crying family members gathered outside the fire-damaged buildings, many of them grasping photographs of their lost relatives.

"When I was informed of the fire, I came running. But I still have been unable to find her... I just want my child back," he expressed to journalists.
The devastating event has another time emphasized the security issues plaguing Bangladesh's garment industry, which provides jobs for countless of workers and is a crucial contributor to economic income for the South Asian economy.
