Relatives demand answers after China poultry plant fire

The relatives of workers who died in a fire at a poultry plant in China have gathered outside the factory to demand answers and an investigation into the cause of the accident.

At least 119 people died in the fire, thought to have been caused by a leak of ammonia at the factory, in Dehui in Jilin province.

The fire is one of China's worst industrial accidents in recent years and there is growing anger over China's poor record when it comes to workplace safety.

John Sudworth reports from Shanghai.
