Bangladesh fire factory owners surrender

DHAKA: Owners of a Bangladesh garment factory surrendered to a court on Sunday, more than a month after warrants for their arrest were issued over the country’s worst industrial fire that killed 111 workers.

Delwar Hossain and his wife Mahmuda Akter were charged and sought for arrest in December over a 2012 blaze that gutted the Tazreen factory where workers stitched clothes for Western retailers, including Walmart.
