MOHALI: At least one person was killed, another one hospitalized in a critical condition and three more were feared trapped under the debris as a four-storey commercial building in Mohali's Sohana village collapsed around 5pm on Saturday.

The building housed a gym in the basement and the two upper floors while the top two floors were paying guest accommodations.

As per the police, excavation work was going on in the adjacent plot, owned by the building owners, causing the land to sink and bring down the building with it. The digging started late Friday evening without proper precautionary measures or permission from Mohali municipal corporation.

The owners, Parwinder Singh and Gagandeep Singh of Chao Majra village have been booked under Sections 105 (culpable homicide not amounting to murder) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita.
