A builder in judicial custody
Let us tell you that a builder arrested in the case of engineer’s death was sent to judicial custody on Wednesday till January 27. Meanwhile, the SIT has intensified the investigation into the case and has interrogated Noida Authority officials facing allegations of negligence. Assistant government advocate Dharmendra Jayant said that Abhay Kumar, one of the accused builders and director of ‘MJ Viztown Planners’, was produced in the court of Chief Judicial Magistrate located in Surajpur, where he was sent to jail in judicial custody till January 27.
Court reprimanded for negligence
Jayant said, “During the hearing, the court reprimanded the court for negligence in this case. Making a strong comment, the court directed the police that in the investigation it should also be clear as to whose negligence it is. If the drain is broken then who is responsible? Not only this, if the barricade is not installed then who is responsible for it? According to him, the court said that all this should be a part of the investigation, because when people were complaining about this for a few years, then why was no action taken at the appropriate time.
Forensic experts collected samples
Meanwhile, Assistant Police Commissioner (Greater Noida) Hemant Upadhyay said that efforts are on to arrest the second builder of real estate developer ‘Lotus Greens’ named in the FIR.
