当地时间10月31日,印度古吉拉特邦内政部长哈什·桑格哈维称拉索桥坍塌事故已造成132人死亡,另有许多人入院治疗,情况危急。当地媒体报道的死亡人数为141,其中包括47名儿童。

Gujarat Home Minister Harsh Sanghavi told reporters that 132 people were confirmed dead and many were admitted to hospitals in critical condition. However, local media outlets put the death toll at 141 including 47 children.

 

目前,大桥坍塌的原因不明,当地政府表示,人多拥挤可能导致事故发生。有报道称,当时桥上有大约500人,远超承载能力。

The cause of the bridge collapse was not immediately known, but local authorities suggested overcrowding as the reason. Reports said around 500 people, much beyond its capacity, were on the bridge at the time.

目前尚不清楚事发时桥上具体人数,但幸存者表示当时人群拥挤,当桥索开始崩断时,人们难以快速转移到安全地区。

It was not immediately clear how many people were on the bridge when it collapsed, but survivors said it was so densely packed that the crowd was unable to move to safety when the cable strings began to snap.

 

吊桥百年历史,近期翻修开放
 

据悉,倒塌的吊桥有着近150年历史,是当地一个受欢迎的旅游景点。此前,该桥关闭了七个月进行翻修,于10月26日重新向公众开放。

The bridge is said to have been built in 1877. It is a popular tourist attraction in the area. It was shut for renovation for seven months and was thrown open for the public on Oct. 26.

 

印度警方10月31日表示,已有9人因古吉拉特邦拉索桥坍塌事故被捕。这其中包括桥梁承包公司的2名管理人员、2名承包商、2名售票员和3名涉嫌玩忽职守的保安。
