Weerachai further reported that the plate of the escalator had become detached from its rail due to worn-out screws. This caused it to slide beneath the moving steps just as the victim was walking on it. As a result, the escalator abruptly stopped working for 10 seconds.

While the escalator was still in motion the other plates continued to move forward, impacting the victim’s leg and resulting in the amputation.

Krit also emphasised that his mother was not using her phone while walking on the escalator, adding she was not the root cause of the accident.
