A five-storey apartment building has collapsed in the Bangladesh capital today, killing at least seven people and injuring another six, officials said.

Seventy-two officers were still missing today after a two-day mutiny by Bangladesh’s border guards, as the death toll rose to 76 with the discovery of 10 more bodies in mass graves at the force’s headquarters, the military said.

Firefighters today resumed their search of the headquarters compound of Bangladesh’s border guards after uncovering the grisly results of the force’s two-day mutiny – dozens of senior officers massacred, their bodies hurriedly dumped into shallow graves and sewers.

Security forces nabbed the suspected military commander and the alleged money man of a banned Islamic group blamed for a series of deadly bombings in Bangladesh, claiming a breakthrough today in their fight against the militants.
