    On 24 April 2013, the eight-story Rana Plaza commercial building collapsed in Savar, a sub-district near Dhaka, the capital of Bangladesh. At least 1,127 people died and over 2,438 were injured. The factory housed a number of separate garment factories employing around 5,000 people, several shops, and a bankand manufactured apparel for brands including the Benetton Group, Joe Fresh, The Children's Place, Primark, Monsoon, and Dressbarn. Of the 29 brands identified as having sourced products from the Rana Plaza factories, only 9 attended meetings held in November 2013 to agree a proposal on compensation to the victims. Several companies refused to sign including Walmart, Carrefour, Bonmarché, Mango, Auchan and Kik. The agreement was signed by Primark, Loblaw, Bonmarche, and El Corte Inglés.

    And of course this redacted-1redacted-2 gets a lot more sympathy than the 1127 Bangladeshis that died partially due to his insatiable greed.

        On the wiki page there’s a [citation needed] next to both of them, so I think it’s an oversight.

    The billionaire then become kinetically embroiled in a gravity-involved incident, colliding at high speed with Earth, a 4.5 billion-year-old planet the oligarch had reportedly been exploiting. The world, known for supporting terrestrial life, was apparently uninjured by the impact according to relieved witnesses
