Bungladesh Garment Factory Deaths

More than 400 people are now confirmed dead after the collapse of the building housing clothing factories in Bangladesh a week ago. 149 people are still missing.

Tens of thousands of people have taken to the streets of the capital, Dhaka, in protests to mark International Workers Day. They're demanding the death penalty for the building's owners.

The European Union says it could take action to create pressure for improvements and accountability on working conditions in Bangladesh.
