Nawaz Sharif and Imran Khan address rallies as search
continues for abducted son of a former prime minister. Campaigning has ended for Pakistan's general elections, with
Nawaz Sharif, the former prime minister, and Imran Khan, the cricketer turned

country ruled for half its history by the military.

Election-related violence that has killed more than 110
people continued on the eve of the vote. A deadly attack was reported in Pakistan's northwest on

former prime minister. At least three people were killed and 10 others wounded

Official says 1,006 people confirmed dead as rescuers pull
more bodies of garment factory workers out of rubble. The death toll in Bangladesh's worst industrial disaster has
soared past 1,000 after more bodies were found in the rubble of a collapsed
building outside the capital, Dhaka.
The "death toll now stands at 1,006" as the
recovery operation entered its 17th day since the building caved in at Savar
town, army spokesman Captain Shahnewaz Zakaria told the AFP news agency on
Friday.
Some of the bodies, which are badly decomposed, could be
identified by mobile phones in their pockets or factory identity cards around
their neck, he said. "Of the total dead, most are female garment
workers." Of the bodies recovered so far, "at least 150 bodies
were buried in unmarked graves in a state graveyard after they could not be
identified," Zakaria added.
The authorities are taking DNA samples from all the victims
for future compensation claims.
More than 3,000 garment workers were in the building's five
garment factories which made clothing for Western retailers such as Benetton,
Mango and Primark when the structure collapsed after a loud bang, trapping
them. At least 2,437 people have been rescued, around 1,000
suffering serious injuries, including scores whose limbs had to be cut off to
free them from the rubble. Preliminary findings of a government probe have blamed
vibrations by four giant generators on the compound's upper floors for
triggering the collapse. The building's architect told AFP he designed the structure
to house a shopping mall and offices, not factories.
Police have arrested twelve people including the plaza's
owner and four garment factory owners for forcing people to work on April 24,
even though cracks appeared in the structure the previous day.
Factory workers have held protests calling for tough
punishment for those responsible for the disaster, and demanding improved
safety regulations. The collapse was the latest in a string of deadly accidents
to hit the textile industry. A factory fire last November killed 111 garment
workers.
Till next time! :)
