Harsimran Singh Bal, deputy superintendent of police, told the Indian Express, “A carnival was being organized, and an eyewitness told us that the swing had fallen due to a technological malfunction.”

Three males and two women were hospitalised at the Phase-6 Civil Hospital for head and neck injuries after the incident.

The now-closed Mohali Trade Fair was scheduled to continue till September 11 of this year.

Mohali Deputy Commissioner Amit Talwar stated that officials are investigating whether the carnival’s organizers received permission to hold it.

Sunny Singh, one of the festival’s organizers, told the Hindustan Times that they have conducted the ride numerous times in the past, but “this has never happened before.”

He stated that he plans to assist the police.
