India Building Collapse Toll Hits 25
At least 25 people are now known to have died when a four-storey residential building collapsed in the western Indian city of Mumbai.
Thirty-two people have so far been pulled from the rubble of Friday’s disaster, some with serious injuries.
Others are still believed to be trapped in the debris of the building near Dockyard Road in the east of the city.
The collapse is the latest in a series in Mumbai. Poor construction practices have been blamed in earlier incidents.
As rescuers equipped with cranes worked into the night, a young girl was pulled alive from the the ruins nearly 12 hours after the collapse.
The cause of the collapse is not yet known.
