After a month of investigation, the Dindoshi police finally registered an FIR against an unknown individual for allegedly bursting firecrackers inside Malad-based high-rise Tower 28 society during a wedding procession. A rocket landed in a flat, sparking a fire. However, instead of cooperating with the investigation, the society builder issued a notice to all residents, instructing them to refrain from keeping anything on their balcony or decorating it, threatening to file an FIR and take action for encroaching on the Chajja`s space.
The Dindoshi police have yet to recover any evidence, including burnt firecrackers and CCTV footage, from the fire incident. No arrests have been made. The complainant, 64-year-old Pradeep Chaudhary, alleges that the malfunctioning firefighting system is also under police investigation for negligence.
