Yesterday, five persons, including a woman, were killed in the fire.

According to witnesses, a boiler exploded with a huge bang around 4:00pm, causing the fire. About 30 workers were at the factory then and most of them rushed outside to save their lives.

A little while after the first explosion, two more boilers exploded, said locals.

It took about one and a half hours' effort by six fire engines of Gazipur and Tongi fire stations to douse the flames.
