Bangladesh's booming garment industry has been plagued by fires and other accidents for years. The country witnessed the last major building collapse in 2005 when over 70 people were killed after a multi-storey garment factory collapsed in the same area.
Meanwhile, thousands of garment factory workers in different parts of the capital took to the streets today demanding stern punishment against the owners of Rana Plaza.
The angry workers vandalised a number of factories at different parts of the Dhaka as those were kept open on Friday instead of showing respect to the victims of the tragedy. They also attacked several vehicles including buses and cars at Shewrapara.
