23 Bangladeshi victims of Nepal airplane crash returned home

    23 Bangladesh nationals who were killed in a plane crash in Nepal have been returned home.

    The bodies are to be transported to an army stadium for a large-scale ceremony.

    On 12 March 51 people were killed, including 28 Bangladeshi nationals, when a US-Bangla Airlines plane crashed in Nepal’s Tribhuvan International Airport whilst landing.

    Reports say an audio recording shows sign of miscommunication with air traffic control leading up to the crash.
