Bangladeshis protest after fire that killed 112: Thousands of Bangladeshi workers blocked the streets of a Dhaka suburb Monday, throwing stones at factories and smashing vehicles, as they demanded justice for 112 people killed in a garment-factory fire that highlighted unsafe conditions in an industry rushing to produce for major retailers around the world.
Quote from article:
"Mohammad Ripu, a survivor, said Monday that he tried to run out of the building when the fire alarm rang but was stopped."Managers told us, 'Nothing happened. The fire alarm had just gone out of order. Go back to work,'" Ripu said. "But we quickly understood that there was a fire. As we again ran for the exit point we found it locked from outside, and it was too late.Ripu said he jumped from a second-floor window and suffered minor injuries."
