5. SOUNDBITE (Bangla) Moshrefa Mishu, President of Bangladesh Garment Workers Federation:
"Capital punishment must be given to those who are responsible for the killing, including Sohel Rana, the owner of the building, as well as the owners of the five factories housed in the building. We have constantly been pressing this demand at home for over the last two years, but unfortunately the punishment has not been ensured yet. Not even a charge sheet has been issued against them (those allegedly responsible). And the workers have not yet got the compensation they had been promised. This is an utter shame. Today, standing here, we reiterate the demand that the killers must be hanged. We want to see them getting punished. And we also demand that the injured, dead and the missing are compensated with 4,800,000 taka (61,700 US dollars) each."

7. Relatives crying

STORYLINE
More than two-thousand people took part in a protest in the Bangladeshi capital Dhaka on Friday to mark the second anniversary of the Rana Plaza disaster, which killed more than 1,100 people.
The protesters included survivors and relatives of those who died.
The tragedy occurred in April 2013 when the illegally constructed Rana Plaza garment factory collapsed in Savar, the centre of the country's 20 billion US dollar garment industry.
The President of the Bangladesh Garments Association, Moshrefu Mishu, said those responsible for the disaster must be brought to justice.
She added that workers have not been given the compensation they were promised.
For many of the victims, the mental trauma is far bigger than the financial or physical ones.
Bangladesh has 5,000 garment factories and 4 million garment workers, with exports mainly to the United States and Europe.
