The Australian High Commission in Dhaka on Wednesday said they are "deeply concerned" by the fire on the Mohanganj Express, which claimed four lives.

"We express our heartfelt condolences to the families and friends of those who lost their lives in what appears to be a deliberate arson attack," said the High Commission in a message shared through X, formerly known as twitter.

The High Commission wished those injured a speedy recovery.
