A Bangladesh Garment Worker Looks Inside A Factory In Dhaka Gutted By Fire Which Claimed Seven Lives

Bangladeshi garment worker Shahinur looks inside the damaged Smart Export Garment Ltd. factory where a fire Saturday claimed the lives of seven of her female colleagues in Dhaka, Bangladesh, Sunday, Jan. 27, 2013. Bangladesh’s government has ordered an investigation into allegations that the sole emergency exit at the factory was locked, an official said Sunday. Saturday’s fire occurred just two months after a blaze killed 112 workers in another factory near the capital, raising questions about safety in Bangladesh’s garment industry, which exports clothes to leading Western retailers.
