Four individuals have sustained injuries and been admitted to the Kandy National Hospital after a section of pavement in front of the old prison in Kandy collapsed this morning (29).
The injured include three men and a woman who were walking along the pavement at the time of the incident.
A section of the pavement in front of a nearby shop suddenly caved in.
Residents suspect that the collapse may have been caused by the erosion of the soil beneath the pavement due to the flow of water in a canal running behind the shops.
Relevant authorities are conducting further investigations into the incident.
