Mumbai, July 10
The Mumbai civic body on Wednesday demolished alleged unauthorised construction and alterations at a city-based bar that was visited by the main accused in the BMW hit-and-run case hours before he rammed his car into a two-wheeler, in which a woman was killed, officials said.
The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) took the action against Vice-Global Tapas Bar located in Juhu suburb of the city, during which it pulled down 3,500 square feet of illegal construction, they said.
Talking about the action taken against the bar, a civic official said the BMC’s K-West ward office team reached the Vice-Global Tapas Bar this morning and demolished the unauthorised construction and alterations made inside the establishment.
On Tuesday, the civic body conducted an inspection of the bar to check if any unauthorised additions and alterations were made at the facility, the official said. Before the demolition, the bar management was given a notice, he said.
