Raw: Deadly Bangladesh Factory Fire

(10 Sep 2016) FOR CLEAN VERSION SEE STORY NUMBER: 4054592 Officials in Bangladesh say at least 23 people are dead and dozens injured after a boiler exploded and triggered a fire at a packaging factory near the capital. Fire officials said that the explosion at the five-story Tampaco Foils Ltd. factory in the Tongi industrial area outside Dhaka was huge, and that the fire triggered by the blast spread quickly because flammable chemicals were stored at the factory. At least six of the 14 people being treated for burns at Dhaka Medical College and Hospital were in critical condition, according to a police official at the hospital. He confirmed that at least 23 people had died. Local TV stations said about 50 people were injured in all. Television footage showed smoke billowing from the factory, with the fire engulfing part of the upper floors. Factory safety is a major concern in Bangladesh, which has thousands of garment and packaging factories that supply products to global chains like Wal-Mart and H&M. A fire at a garment factory in a Dhaka suburb killed 112 workers in 2012. In 2013, a commercial complex near Dhaka housing five garment factories collapsed, killing 1,135 people, Bangladesh's worst industrial disaster.
