Summary

A fire at the TUPTUP Resto and Resort on Patuar Tek along Ukhiya Marine Drive in Inani, Cox's Bazar, broke out around 6:30am on a Saturday and destroyed the three-storey timber building. Reports state 11 people died and 9 were injured. Reports say the resort lacked a fire-safety permit and had been warned earlier; authorities have formed a committee to examine the cause. Victims were badly burned and identified through DNA testing, and a case has been filed against the owner and manager, with the owner reported not yet located and the manager in custody. The incident has raised concerns about fire-safety compliance at tourist resorts in the coastal district.
