We will get confirmation from all the teams working inside whether they are alive or not.

Various of army preventing relatives from approaching area of collapse STORYLINE Bangladesh rescuers on Sunday located nine people alive inside the rubble of a multi-storey building that collapsed five days ago, as authorities announced they will now use heavy equipment to drill a central hole from the top to look for survivors and dead bodies. Working round-the-clock, rescuers have used bare hands and shovels, passing chunks of brick and concrete down a human chain away from the collapsed structure. However rescue coordinators say it will soon be time to start the "second phase" of the operation. This would involve manual efforts as well as heavy equipment, including hydraulic cranes and cutters to bore a hole from the top of the collapsed building, they said. There are fears that heavy machinery could harm any survivors still trapped inside the collapsed building, but rescuers say precautions will be taken to prevent this. "We will get confirmation from all the teams working inside whether they are alive or not. After we've got that information we'll decide in a meeting whether we'll go inside," Brigadier General Siddiqul Alam Sikder told reporters. At least 362 people are confirmed dead in the collapse of the eight-storey building, which housed five garment factories. The death toll is expected to rise further, but it is already the deadliest tragedy to hit Bangladesh's garment industry, which is worth 20 billion US dollars annually and is a mainstay of the economy. Wednesday's collapse and previous disasters in garment factories have focused attention on the poor working conditions of workers who toil for as little as 38 US dollars a month to produce clothing for top international brands.
