A day before a four-storey building at Grant Road partially collapsed, killing an elderly woman, MHADA officials had initiated the demolition of the nearby Mistry Apartments, a structure deemed extremely dangerous. However, they had to put their plans on hold due to the presence of 48 dogs and 30 cats on the ground floor.
The animals are being treated by fashion designer Farida Baja, 60, who resides on the ground floor of Mistry Apartments. As the animal lover allegedly refuses to budge, officials are in a bind.
