Irregularities in the building

There was also a restaurant on the roof of the building that was burnt down in Bailey Road. The building owners rent the roof to a restaurant called Ambrosia. The building has gas connection through plastic pipe. Analysts believe that the number of casualties on that day was high due to such numerous irregularities.

It is known that a fire broke out in a shop called Chumuk on the ground floor of Green Cozy Cottage on Thursday night. Shafiqul Islam Limon and Anwarul Haque are the owners of the shop which opened only 15 days ago. No fire alarm went off after the fire. So no one trapped above could get out.

Amin Mohammad Group built and sold the building. Although residential and office permission is taken up to seven floors, the restaurant is rented. Ambrosia restaurant is specially rented on the roof. So many could not take shelter there after the fire.

The police say that so many lives have been lost due to the negligence of the building owner and irresponsibility of the gas connection. Additional IG of DMP. b. Mahid Uddin said, 'The negligence is at such a level that it is similar to setting fire. If there are such combustible materials and insecurity, the risk of fire is high.'

Analysts say that the company does not follow any instructions of the authorities. Due to delay in trial, the case is not resolved. Abu Naeem Mohammad Shahidullah, former director general of fire service, said that the case is so long that the inspector who filed the case today has to go to the court even after retiring as DD (Deputy Director).

Plastic pipe connection risers are found in the building. The investigation committee is looking into whether there is a stolen Titus gas line.

A fire broke out at Green Cozy Cottage on Bailey Road in the capital last Thursday around 10 pm. 13 units of fire service brought the fire under control in about two hours. 46 people have died in this incident so far. 75 people were rescued alive.

The building housed several restaurants including Kacchi Bhai, Pizza Inn, Street Oven, Khanas. There are also a number of popular clothing stores including Elien, Closest Cloud.
