Bengaluru cops grill BMRCL engineers, contractor firm reps

Police on Thursday grilled three BMRCL engineers and as many representatives of NCC Ltd over the metro pier
accident.

The six were questioned for several hours and have been summoned for questioning again on Friday.

The six were named in the FIR that the Govindapura police registered following the death of a woman techie and her toddler son after an under-construction metro pier collapsed along the Outer Ring Road in HBR Layout on January 10.

Bheemashankar S Guled, Deputy Commissioner of Police (East), said further course of action in the probe would be decided only after all the nine suspects were questioned. He declined to give more details, saying the investigation is still in the initial stage.
