Manufacturer used non-existent nomenclature for BDL museum elevator, in which top dentist was killed two months ago, to evade registration with the authorities, probe concludes

The lift at Bhau Daji Lad Museum in Byculla collapsed while Dr Havewala and her daughter were using it
The lift at Bhau Daji Lad museum that killed a city dentist and injured her daughter in a mishap two months ago, was in fact, not a lift at all. The product sold to the museum is called a 'levegator' on paper, concluded Lift Inspector (City) in its report submitted to the Mumbai Police.
The authority was asked by the Byculla police to give details of the technical specifications of the lift, its authenticity, and legal validity. A three-page report was thus submitted by the lift inspector, red flagging issues at the manufacturer's end.
