SHANGHAI — A high-rise apartment fire that killed 53 people was completely avoidable, China’s top labor safety official said, blaming lax supervision and illegal work practices.
Luo Lin, head of the State Administration of Work Safety, is leading the probe into the blaze, which gutted the 28-story building Monday after sparks from welding allegedly set nylon netting and scaffolding on fire. At least 30 people are still missing.
