The explosion, around 6am on Saturday, led to a huge fire at the Tampaco Foils factory at Tongi on Saturday. At least 20 firefighting units have been deployed to tame the fire, which has caused two floors of the five-storey building to partially collapse. The two bodies were recovered around 10am and authorities said they died when two floors of the building collapsed. Tongi hospital's Resident Doctor Md Parvez Mia said two burnt and mutilated bodies were first brought to the hospital from the factory. DMCH police outpost's Inspector Bachchu Miah said at least 19 injured persons were admitted to the hospital.
