Building collapse: Adjacent structures to be demolished;

Goa government today announced that three buildings adjacent to the structure that collapsed in Cancona, killing 17 people, would be demolished even as the police continued their search for the property's builders, against whom an FIR has been registered.
Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar said all the authorities had certified that there was no possibility of finding any more survivors in the debris of the collapsed building.
The building caved-in as its design was faulty and the quality of construction was poor, Parrikar said, adding that the structure that collapsed, as well as the ones adjacent to it, had been built on a weak foundation.

The demolition of the adjacent buildings will begin tomorrow, Parrikar. The machinery required to carry out the demolition has been requisitioned from Pune, the CM added.
The three buildings in question have been declared as being unsafe structures and would be demolished within a span of four days, he said.
Goa government had yesterday withdrawn rescue operations at the site of the building collapse in Cancona town, about 70km from here, after two of the adjacent buildings began to tilt precariously.
Police registered an FIR against several persons, including government officers, who had allegedly cleared the controversial five-storey project of 80 flats.
