ICE <i>crime</i>

As a heatwave sweeps across the country over the past couple of weeks, demand for cold drinks and ice creams keeps soaring. Taking the advantage, some unscrupulous traders in Chittagong manufacture ice creams using hazardous chemicals in unhygienic conditions. Their unbranded products always sell well across the city, especially at bus terminals and slum areas. The factories run mostly in summer. The photos were shot at Bakolia in Chittagong on Sunday.
