Fire fighters had difficulty arriving to Kazi Nazrul Islam Avenue because an accident involving a bus and a rickshaw near the scene of the fire had caused a traffic jam.
23 people trapped on top of the building were rescued by a helicopter while More than a hundred people were injured in the fire.
Three firemen were burnt in the fire and had to be rushed to hospital.
The fire is the fault of the Rajdhani Unnayan Kartripakkha (RAJUK) planning committee which takes bribes and allows the construction of illegal buildings.
