Hyderabad: Tension gripped the accident site when relatives of the dead workers staged a protest with the bodies. They demanded compensation and action against the builder. The relatives agreed to send the bodies for autopsy after police assured them of action against the builder.
Krishna, hailing from Mahbubnagar and Nagesh from Sholapur were labourers. When the builder contacted Krishna’s uncle Sailu, he arranged Krishna and Nagesh to work for a day. Sailu said he dropped them at the site and left around 9 am, but got news of their death in less than two hours. “The incident occurred due to the builder’s negligence. Both families lost bread earners. Who will take care of their children now?,” Sailu said. Krishna and Nagesh are survived by their wives and two kids each.
