Repaired elevators a dirty affair
The 74 refurbished elevators which were assembled illegally and sold in Xiaoshan in Hangzhou, capital of Zhejiang province, have been forced to stop operation. But surprisingly, only one "part-time" employee of a local elevator company was suspected of illegally recycling and selling the elevators, and only one supervisor took the blame for lack of proper inspection, says an article in Beijing News. Excerpts:
A worker died while working on a refurbished elevator that had been scrapped earlier, highlighting the illegal business in reassembled elevators and raising widespread social concern. Investigators probing the incident found and ordered the scrapping of 74 problematic elevators. But so far, local authorities have zeroed in on only one suspect.
