Singh expressed disappointment city officials failed to respond to his numerous messages to report the incident that occurred at an eThekwini Municipality organised event — the first-ever street market on the popular road in Morningside.His daughter, Pranshansa Singh, 40, was hospitalised after she was diagnosed with concussion, partial loss of memory and brain damage.Singh said his family was at the market when a stallholder, who was promoting polish for white takkies, approached his daughter.
“As we were all in a carnival mood my granddaughter took out her cellphone to photograph my daughter as she stepped on a wooden platform on which stood a reclining chair that was being used by clients while their takkies were being cleaned. Unbeknown to us the chair was not bolted onto the wooden base and not secured in any way.“No sooner did she sit on the chair when the chair fell backwards, resulting in the back of her head hitting the pavement, and her body rested on the road surface.
