A fire broke out today at Dhaka’s Barishal Plaza Market — opposite to Bangabazar which burned down just four days ago. The fire has been brought under control.
The fire broke out on the 3rd floor of the market around 8:05 am and spread soon, said Anwarul Islam, warehouse inspector of Fire Service and Civil Defence headquarters.
On information, 14 firefighting units rushed to the spot and brought the blaze under control around 8:45 am.
However, what caused the fire could not be known immediately.
A massive fire broke out at the Bangabazar Market in Dhaka on April 4 and it spread to some other nearby markets, burning several thousand shops, with mainly readymade clothes and footwear, to ashes.
