No Bangladeshi among NY fire victims

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs Tuesday said no Bangladesh national has been killed or injured in the fire that broke at a commercial building in New York.
“There was no report of casualty or victim of any (Bangladesh) national,” said a Foreign Ministry media release.
A fire broke out at about 6 pm (21 April, New York Time) inside a commercial building in Jackson Heights area in New York. The third and fourth floors of the four-storey Bruson Building have been badly affected, according to a news agency.
Firefighters brought it under control around 11:30 pm. It was not yet clear what actually caused the fire.
Bangladesh Consul General M Shameem Ahsan and the Deputy Consul General visited the spot and talked to the members of the community who gathered there in big numbers.
They suspect that about 30 offices (tax/attorney, travel agency etc.) and shops, owned by Bangladeshis seem to have been gutted, among others.
However, the actual damage could not be ascertained immediately as the police personnel cordoned off the area.
