The Special Investigation Team (SIT) of the Mumbai Crime Branch on Monday questioned a BMC engineer in connection with the hoarding collapse at Ghatkopar, which killed 17 people and injured many. The engineer, identified as Sunil Dalvi, was associated with the N Ward and overlooked the illegal hoarding in his jurisdiction. The SIT discovered that he was in frequent contact with the prime accused, Bhavesh Bhinde, owner of EGO Media Private Limited.
According to the SIT, Dalvi was called for questioning after examining BMC documents, which revealed that he was posted at the N Ward of the BMC, under whose jurisdiction the hoarding falls. Despite knowing that the hoarding was placed illegally without BMC’s permission, Dalvi did not take any action.
