Who Will Bear The Loss Of Thousands Of Clothes In Zhuzhou Eurotown?

A year ago, Miss Ma rented a shop less than 5 square meters on the ground floor of the clothing market in Eurotown, Lusong District, where she stored hundreds of clothes.

To Miss Ma's surprise, at about 8:00 a.m. on July 16, it rained heavily, and the ceiling of her shop began to seep. "The amount of water was very large, and there was a smell". In less than an hour, she has already sold more than 500 pieces Clothing Fully wetted. Three other stores were also flooded, and more than 600 clothes were soaked.

When it happened, someone in the clothing market immediately contacted Miss Ma and three other shopkeepers. It was too late when four people arrived at the market.

Yesterday morning, four shopkeepers told reporters that water seepage from the ceiling was a problem in the buildings of Eurotown, and the relevant departments should be responsible for it.

The general name of Zhou, who is responsible for the marketing project of Zhongtong Property in the clothing market of Eurocity, said that the flooding was a natural disaster: on the day of the rainstorm, all the rainwater was concentrated in the sewer pipe, causing the pipe to break, and the rainwater seeped along the optical fiber hole to the first floor of the building, causing damage to the property of the merchants. "Each party should bear its own part of the responsibility".

Both parties have different opinions on the amount of loss. Nearly half a month has passed, but the matter remains unresolved.

Nie Wei, the legal adviser of the newspaper, said that if the two parties disagree with the amount of compensation, they can ask the price department as a third party to assess the losses of the four stores, and then negotiate on compensation. If no further negotiation is reached, the problem can be solved through legal means.
