Woman Killed, Brother-In-Law Injured In Wall Collapse In Indore

Indore (Madhya Pradesh): A 32-year-old woman was killed and her 26-year-old brother-in-law was injured when an under-construction wall collapsed on them in the Kanadiya police station area on Thursday evening. The incident occurred at Mridang Garden near Phoenix Mall, along the Bypass Road.

According to additional DCP Amrendra Singh, the deceased was identified as Savitri Bai Solanki, a resident of Khargone district who was residing in Arandiya, Lasudia. She was working as a labourer alongside her brother-in-law, Dinesh Solanki, when the structure suddenly caved in. Both workers were trapped beneath the heavy rubble.

Savitri Bai died on the spot from severe injuries. Her body was later sent to MY Hospital for a post-mortem examination. Dinesh sustained injuries in the collapse and was rushed to a nearby hospital for treatment.

Police initiated an investigation into the collapse to determine whether safety lapses at the construction site contributed to the fatal accident.
