Nadeera while being a bystander to her cancer stricken mother at the RCC on May 15 entered a non functional lift at the hospital which had no warning board kept and was left open.
After entering the open lift, she fell down two floors and it was after a while that she was noticed and was taken to the nearby Medical College hospital and since then she has been under treatment.
