The uncompleted structure in Accra collapsed in the early hours of Thursday leaving one person dead and another hospitalized.
Though the Tesano Divisional Police Command has taken a statement over the issue from Mr. Omari, it is yet to charge him with any offense.
Public Relations Officer of the Greater Accra Regional Police, DSP Freeman Tettey said the statement received from the owner of the collapsed storey building will be very useful for police investigations.

A statement signed by the Mayor of Accra, Dr. Alfred Okoe Vanderpuije, said the three are liable for acts of negligence as they failed to follow proper procedure in their monitoring activities.
