Four people, including a woman and a child, were killed while two others were injured in two roof collapse incidents on Wednesday.
In the Chak 381 GB along Jaranwala Road, a roof under construction collapsed after a wall reportedly weakened, causing the structure to fall. As a result, one-year-old Ali Hassan, 22-year-old Sadiya Bibi and 22-year-old Rehana were critically injured and later died. A man and his son were injured in the incident.
Rescue 1122 teams retrieved the bodies from the debris and shifted the injured to a hospital. Police completed legal formalities and handed over the bodies to the families.
In a separate incident in Amaanat Town, Kharrianwala, a roof being repaired at a livestock shed collapsed after a girder slipped. A 60-year-old man, Shahbaz, died on the spot, while Iqbal and his son Atiq were rescued and shifted to a hospital.Latest News, Breaking News & Top News Stories | The Express TribuneOur CorrespondentRead More
