DARK SECRETS: Manslaughter arrest after four vietnamese men die in horror oldham mill fire | Rare Historical Photos

A man has been arrested on suspicion of manslaughter after four Vietnamese men were killed in a devastating mill fire.

Uoc Van Nguyen, 31, Cuong Van Chu, 39, Duong Van Nguyen, 29, and 21-year-old Nam Thanh Lee died after a blaze broke out at the Bismark House mill on Bower Street in Oldham on May 7 last year. It wasn't until demolition work began on the site that workers uncovered human remains on July 23.

Police believe the men are likely to have been victims of modern-day slavery. Officers also found evidence part of the mill was being used as a cannabis farm.
