Speaking to ITV News, the family said the Cheshire mill's owners had not been in touch with them since Friday's blast.

They said they had received no comfort, support, counselling or sympathy from the Boden group.

ITV News correspondent Damon Green said: "They were very unhappy at the fact that the employers, the owners of this mill, have not been in contact with them at all in three days since their family member went missing.

"That has made them very, very angry indeed."

A body was found in the wreckage last night but was yet to be identified.
