Dhaka survivor Reshma: 'No-one could hear me'

A woman pulled alive from a building that collapsed in a suburb of Bangladesh's capital, Dhaka, 17 days ago, has spoken about her final moments in the rubble.

Rescuers said the woman, named Reshma, was found in the remains of the second floor of the Rana Plaza after they heard her crying: "Please save me."

She told Somoy TV: "It was very difficult to make myself heard. I kept banging whatever I could with my legs but no-one could hear me."
