Juhu CHS situated on Relief Road Santa Cruz West witnessed high drama on Saturday morning when 29 of its members, mostly senior citizens, who had moved out in 2016, after the society was listed for redevelopment, were denied entry by two members who had decided to stay back. The tension was diffused only after the police intervened.

"We were just following the directives of the civil court and BMC that authorised members to submit a fresh structural audit report within seven days, but was delayed as resident members denied having received a copy of the same. After diligent follow ups we decided to meet up at 8.30 am along with our structural auditor, but were denied entry in to our own building and flats," said Vijay Ranade, 76, the society's former secretary.
