Bangladesh Ferry Sinks, at Least 37 Killed
DHAKA (Reuters) - At least 37 people were killed and more than 150
missing when a Bangladesh ferry capsized in a storm on a river near
the capital Dhaka, police said on Sunday.

The ferry, M.V. Maharaj, carrying some 200 passengers was sailing to
the southern town of Chandpur from Dhaka when it got caught in a
sudden tropical storm on the Buriganga river late on Saturday.
