Police have registered an offence of culpable homicide against six persons in connection with the fire at a Bhandup mall, which claimed the lives of nine coronavirus patients undergoing treatment at a hospital located there, an official said on Saturday.

The names of Housing Development and Infrastructure Ltd (HDIL) promoter Rakesh Wadhawan and his son Sarang, who are directors of the mall, also figure in the FIR, he said.

The managements of the Dreams Mall, where the incident occurred and the Sunrise Hospital, a Covid-19 facility, where nine patients died due to the blaze, were named in the FIR that was registered at Bhandup police station late night on Friday, the official said.

“Rakesh Wadhawan, Nikita Amit Singh Trehan, Sarang Wadhawan and Deepak Shirke, who are directors of the mall, and Amit Singh Trehan and Sweety Jain, who are directors of the hospital are named in the FIR. Nikita Trehan is also a director of the hospital,” he said.

The case against them was registered under IPC sections 304 (culpable homicide not amounting to murder) and 34 (common intention), the Bhandup police station official said.

“During the probe conducted so far, police found several lapses at the mall. There is mismanagement in terms of security and the fire safety equipment was not checked on time,” he added.

It was also found that although there are 1,108 shops in the mall, nearly 40 per cent of them are shut and not in operation, he said. “In January, the Sunrise Hospital was converted into a Covid Care Centre,” the official said.

The fire had broken out in the mall shortly after Thursday midnight. It started from a shop and spread to the hospital that is located on the top floor of the four-storeyed mall, fire brigade officials have said.

Nine Covid-19 patients undergoing treatment at the hospital died due to suffocation as a result of the fire, while two other patients at the hospital had already died due to coronavirus before the fire broke out, the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) had said.

Altogether 78 patients were being treated at the 107- bed hospital when the fire broke out, the BMC had said, adding that 67 patients were shifted to other hospitals after the blaze.

Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray, who visited the spot on Fridiay afternoon, had said that permission was granted to the hospital last year to run a Covid-19 centre temporarily.
