A court sentenced owners and managers of a supermarket to prison because of a fire in 2004 that killed 327 people.
The owner, his son, a security guard and a major shareholder in the Ycua Bolanos supermarket received terms ranging from 2 1/2 to 12 years.
About 400 people were injured when the supermarket burned down after a fire started in a chimney that investigators said was poorly built and maintained.
