The police registered a case under Section 304-II (causing death by negligence) of the Indian Penal Code.
Six workers and a four-year-old boy died when the retaining wall of an under-construction apartment complex collapsed on Tuesday evening after heavy rains.
The incident occurred at Renuka Yellamma Temple Colony in Bachupally in Medchal Malkajgiri district.
According to police, a 30 to 40-feet high wall came crashing down, killing the migrant construction workers from Odisha and Chhattisgarh.
The six-feet wide mud barrier supporting the compound wall dissolved after the heavy rains which caused the wall to collapse over the makeshift sheds.
