Three killed in factory fire - The Times of India

Three killed in factory fire - The Times of India: KOLKATA: Three workers were asphyxiated in their sleep when a textile-manufacturing workshop-cum-warehouse at Metiabruz caught fire early on Wednesday. A fourth worker was admitted to SSKM hospital while one escaped unhurt.

The fire — possibly triggered by a short-circuit — broke out around 1am on the second floor of the building on Haji Ratan Molla Lane. There are five rooms on the floor, which house the warehouse, the textile manufacturing units and the folding and packaging units. Local merchant Habibul Rehman owns the factory. Five workers on the night shift stayed back. All of them were asleep when the fire broke out.
