Who owns the factory? Ghulam Dastagir Khan?

Faheem | 10 years ago | Reply I work at a factory about half a mile from the boiler explosion. The sound was deafening and some window panes at our factory were shattered. I really do hope there are no more casualties. Emergency services' responded in good time.
