6 killed in Mumbai bridge collapse, cops book BMC and railway officials for negligence

孟买天桥坍塌造成6人死亡，警方以玩忽职守罪起诉市政公司和铁路官员

MUMBAI: In yet another bridge collapse near the city’s suburban railway stations, the nodal foot over-bridge at the northern end of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus (CSMT) came crashing down on Thursday evening. Six commuters were killed and at least 34 injured. The number of casualties is expected to rise.

孟买:周四晚，孟买郊区火车站附近一座天桥发生垮塌，该天桥位于贾特拉帕蒂·希瓦吉·马哈拉杰终点站(CSMT)。事故造成6人死亡，至少34人受伤，预计伤亡人数还会上升。

A safety audit of the structure by the civic authority last year had declared the bridge “safe”. A Central Railway spokesperson said, “The collapsed portion did connect the station but it was in the BMC area and constructed and maintained by the civic authorities.”

去年，市政当局对大桥结构进行了安全审计，并宣布大桥“安全”。中央铁路一位发言人称，“坍塌的部分确实与车站相连，但它位于市政公司负责区域，由市政当局建造和维护。”

At 7.31pm, there was a loud thud. The flooring of the ‘Himalaya bridge’ on the arterial D N Road had given way, taking down scores of rush-hour commuters from a height of 35 feet.

晚上7点31分，伴随一声巨响，位于主干道DN路上的“喜马拉雅大桥”(Himalaya bridge)的桥面塌陷，导致数十名下班高峰期通勤人员从35英尺的高空坠落。

CM Devendra Fadnavis announced an ex-gratia of Rs 5 lakh to the families of the dead and Rs 50,000 for the injured.“I have ordered a high-level inquiry. Such an incident raises questions about the audit,” he said.

首席部长Devendra Fadnavis宣布向死者家属发放50万卢比抚恤金，并向伤者发放5万卢比抚恤金。“我已下令进行调查，这样的事件引发了对审计的质疑，”他表示。

The city police has lodged an FIR against some BMC and CR officials for negligence leading to death. They may also add a charge of culpable homicide not amounting to murder after ascertaining details about the role of the BMC and railways.

该市警方已就市政公司和铁路官员玩忽职守致人死亡的行为提出了立案调查。在确定了市政公司和铁路公司的责任后，他们还可能加上一项过失杀人罪，但不构成谋杀。

Shortly after the CST footover bridge disaster, joint commissioner of police (law and order) Deven Bharati said police had registered a case of causing death by negligence under Section 304 (A) of the Indian Penal Code against concerned officials of the BMC and railways. “More stringent sections will be applied if additional facts emerge during the course of the investigation,” he said. Another senior officer said they may add the section of culpable homicide not amounting to murder. A senior officer said welding points at the girders appeared to have rusted and will be examined as a cause of the collapse.

在天桥发生坍塌后不久，联合警察专员Deven Bharati表示，警方根据印度刑法304 (a)条对市政公司和铁路公司相关官员登记了一起过失致死案件。他说:“如果在调查过程中发现更多实情，我们将采取更严厉的措施。”另一名高级官员表示，他们可能会加上过失杀人罪，但不构成谋杀。一名高级官员表示，大桥主梁上的焊接点似乎已经生锈，将对此进行检查，确定是否为坍塌原因。

Given that thousands of commuters used this 30-year-old bridge every day, the BMC decided to puncture the road divider underneath to enable railway passengers to cross. A road divider approxmately 4 feet in height was demolished to create the crossing after the tragedy in the evening. The BMC also summoned its structural auditor to determine if the remaining portion of the bridge should be razed. An earlier civic audit in 2017 had shown that the structure needed “minor repairs.”

考虑到每天有成千上万的通勤者使用这座有30年历史的大桥，市政公司决定拆除桥下的道路分隔栏，让铁路乘客能够通过。晚上的悲剧发生后，一个大约4英尺高的道路分隔栏被拆除，形成了一个十字路口。市政公司还召集了结构审计员来确定是否应该拆除大桥的剩余部分。2017年早些时候的一次市政审计显示，这座大桥需要“小修”。

PM Narendra Modi and Union home minister Rajnath Singh tweeted their condolences.

莫迪总理和内政部长辛格在推特上发文表示哀悼。

State education minister Vinod Tawde, who arrived at the site, said an inquiry would be conducted jointly by the railway and the BMC, and the guilty would be “sacked.” Congress’s former MP Milind Deora demanded that an FIR be lodged under Section 302 against BMC officers and structural auditors for giving a “wrong report.”

到达事故现场的教育部长维诺德·陶德(Vinod Tawde)表示，铁路公司和市政公司将联合展开调查，有罪的人将“被解职”。国会前议员Milind Deora要求根据刑法第302条对市政公司官员和结构审计员进行立案调查，因为他们提供了一份“错误的报告”。

Few know the bridge leading out from CSMT station by its official name of Himalaya Bridge. For years, commuters had noticed the structure shake beneath their feet, especially during peak-hour pedestrian movement, or when trains passed beneath the portion leading to the platforms. The authorities had relaid the tiles in 2016, but this problem persisted. On Thursday, their worst fears were realised as the structure collapsed, causing pedestrians to plunge from a height of 35ft.

很少有人知道位于贾特拉帕蒂·希瓦吉·马哈拉杰终点站附近的这座天桥的官方名称是喜马拉雅大桥。多年来，通勤者已经注意到他们脚下的大桥在震动，尤其是在高峰期，或者当火车从下方经过时。当局在2016年对大桥进行了重新修复，但这个问题依然存在。周四，他们最担心的事情发生了，建筑物倒塌，导致行人从35英尺的高空坠落。
