The window glass is blown off. Five fire service units arrived at the scene and controlled the fire after trying for half an hour. That said, this incident happened in the air conditioning explosion.
Abdul Gafur Mia, Chairman of the Management Committee of the Baitus Salat Jame Mosque, which was destroyed by the blast, said: “Seven days ago, gas was bubbling from the floor of the mosque’s lobby. I was thinking that this gas is leaking from the gas line next door. So I went to the Titas regional office in Narayanganj and made a verbal request to remove the gas pipe. An office official wants a bribe of Rs 50,000 to remove the gas pipeline.
