Lab tests yet to be done

The laboratory tests of materials of the crashed press box at the Bangabandhu National Stadium would not be available by this month, confirmed the National Sports Council (NSC) yesterday.
The roof of the press box collapsed on October 8 and the NSC probe committee was directed to submit its final report by this month.
"It seems that we won't be able to draw a conclusion of the investigation before November 10," said Aminul Islam Khan, secretary of the NSC.
Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (BUET) and the Military Institute of Science and Technology (MITS) have taken specimens of the materials of the crash site but neither organisation has finished the test reports.
"BUET has given us a letter today stating that it will need minimum one further week to complete the tests," informed Aminul.
"If we don't get the lab supports, the investigations won't be conclusive. At this stage, we cannot help but wait. We will submit the final report as soon as we get those lab reports," he added.
