Quanzhou Xinjia Hotel Isolation

The State Council, the collapse accident of Xinjia Hotel in Quanzhou City, Fujian Province was identified as a major production safety accident caused by illegal construction, renovation and reinforcement. Therefore, the Fujian Provincial Public Security Bureau also investigated 23 responsible persons for taking criminal compulsory measures according to law. In addition, the discipline inspection and supervision organs also investigated the responsibility of 49 public officials suspected of using their positions to commit crimes in this accident, and transferred 7 of them to judicial organs for criminal responsibility.

At the time of the incident, Xinjia Hotel was being used as a centralized isolated observation point for epidemic prevention and control in COVID-19. After the hotel collapsed, 7/kloc-0 people were trapped and 9 people escaped by themselves, resulting in 29 deaths and 42 injuries, which directly caused economic losses of 57.94 million yuan. After the hotel collapsed, many rescue forces, such as fire fighting, medical treatment and emergency management, rushed to the scene for treatment at the first time, requiring large equipment to operate. The rescue was completed five days after the accident. The direct cause of the hotel's collapse this time is that the original four floors were illegally added with mezzanine, and seven floors were built, which made the lower part overwhelmed and always on the verge of collapse. In addition, before the collapse, the bottom supporting steel bars were illegally welded, which destroyed the stability of steel columns and led to the decline of the ultimate bearing capacity of buildings.

In addition, the person in charge of Xinjia Hotel ignored the laws and regulations of national urban and rural planning, construction, safety production, administrative licensing and other laws and regulations, and illegally built and constructed. In addition, the responsibility for safe production has not been implemented for a long time. And related engineering quality inspection, architectural design, fire detection, decoration design institutions illegally undertake business, issue false reports, and make false materials to help enterprises pass the examination and approval. In addition, the relevant departments have not reported and investigated the illegal construction and renovation of Xinjia Hotel buildings for a long time, and the responsibility for territorial management is seriously lacking; Moreover, it is irresponsible in the special treatment of illegal construction and the investigation of hidden dangers of housing safety, with obvious loopholes and serious formalism.
