Al Amin Babu lost his battle against severe burn injuries Friday morning at Dhaka Medical College Hospital. The eighteen-year-old worker from Kurigram district's Roumari area died at eleven o'clock while receiving intensive care treatment. Inspector Faruk from the hospital police camp verified the death of the young man who had worked at a nearby shop. His passing brings the total fatalities from the September 22 warehouse incident to three people.
Two firefighters had already succumbed to their injuries earlier this week at the National Institute of Burn and Plastic Surgery. Shamim passed away Tuesday while Nurul Huda died Wednesday after both sustained complete burns during the emergency response. Joy Hasan remains hospitalized with minor burn injuries covering five percent of his body. The chemical warehouse fire at Sahara Market in Tongi triggered the fatal blast that claimed these lives while authorities continue examining the cause.
