The Navghar police in Bhayandar have registered an FIR against swimming coaches, managing committee members, and trustees of the swimming pool who were contracted to operate the Loknete Gopinath Munde Sports Complex in Bhayandar East, following the death of 10-year-old Granth Mutha, who drowned on Sunday. According to the family, the pool was overcrowded beyond its capacity, with only six lifeguards deployed. The police have launched an investigation into the matter.
Granth had enrolled in a summer camp to learn swimming at the Mira-Bhayandar Municipal Corporation (MBMC) owned swimming facility. However, due to alleged negligence by the staff, he tragically drowned in the pool.
