Electrical repairs are being carried out in the apartment building for units 24–31 at Shere House. Thick, high-voltage cables have been placed outside the common areas, and several sections of these cables are completely exposed. In addition, these cables connect to the building’s main electrical room, where a hole was made in the wall of the electrical cabinet, also left fully exposed. This situation poses a danger to anyone accessing the building’s common area.
