Bangladesh authorities have arrested eight people in the collapse of a building whose death toll has risen to at least 336. Two factory owners and their relatives were arrested, along with two engineers, CNN reports via state news. "It is not an accident, it is a killing incident," says the country's information minister. "All, including owners and administrative officials concerned, must be put on the dock for the killing of people."
Twenty-four more people were rescued today, the BBC reports; in total, some 2,300 have been saved, according to police. About 600 remain missing. Among those rescued were a woman and her newborn after the woman reportedly gave birth in the rubble. Rescue work was set to end this morning, officials said, prompting new protests yesterday. "Whenever an ambulance is arriving" at a school housing bodies, "everyone is rushing towards hoping to find at least the body of their near and dear ones," says an anti-corruption organization rep.
