The administration team confirmed the closure, estimating a repair duration of “two or three weeks.” All retail outlets within the mall have been temporarily shuttered while the residential section continues to operate.
Safety Precautions Underway
The incident was attributed to an overloaded equipment storage bay, leading to the partial collapse. Subsequent measures are underway to evaluate the structure’s integrity and undertake necessary repairs.
