The scene of a mall that collapsed in Tongaat. One person has died and 29 were injured in a roof collapse at a shopping mall that was under construction. Gralio Precast, the company owned by Jay Singh and family, is responsible for the collapsed Tongaat mall. Gralio has a history of shoddy workmanship. The Manase report, the department of housing and the National Home Builders Registration Council (NHBRC) have all chastised this company for poor workmanship in recent years for various government housing contracts. Controversial businessman Jay Singh was standing just metres away from the concrete slab of the Tongaat Mall when it caved in.
