Court proceedings have started for the owners of three properties adjacent to a construction site, alleged to have collapsed and taken the life of one individual. The plaintiffs are claiming compensation for structural damage caused to the property. One individual was found dead in their apartment after the collapse of the structure in March of 2020. The plaintiffs claim that no work has been carried out on the properties since the collapse causing the plaintiffs to suffer both pecuniary and non-pecuniary damages. They are seeking compensation for their suffering. Four of the defendants are facing ongoing criminal proceedings in which they are accused of negligently causing the death.
