Thane: two people died and others were injured after the third floor slab of a 25-year-old plus-four-story building came in Rabodi in Thane around 6am on Sundays.

“I heard a big sound …
like I came out of my apartment, I saw dust around, hearing people shouting,” said another winger.

Wounded, Farha Gousing Tamboli (10), was seriously injured and had shifted to a local hospital.
