LAHORE: At least 16 people were killed and 40 injured when a factory roof collapsed in Lahore on Wednesday, with around a hundred more still trapped.

“The rescue workers have so far retrieved 16 dead bodies while at least 40 injured have been taken to hospitals,” Mohammad Usman, the city’s top administration official who was coordinating the response to the disaster, said.

The toll was confirmed by Haider Ashraf, a senior local police official.

The incident took place at a polythene bag factory in the Sundar industrial estate in the city.

Jam Sajjad Hussain, a spokesperson for the rescue services, said 100 people were still trapped, while ambulances were taking the injured to hospital.

“All our rescue workers are on site but it is such a big incident that we have called rescue workers from other nearby districts,” he added.
