Relatives pray for the departed soul of their loved one who died in the blaze. They were not able to identify a body and considered them gone. At least 112 people died, and more than 100 were injured at a fire at the Tazreen Fashions textile factory in Dhaka. Bangladesh's garment industry has a notoriously bad fire safety record; if the right precautions had been taken, the fire could have been prevented.
