INSIDE INFORMATION: Lawsuits filed against SRV Group Plc’s subsidiary SRV Construction Ltd relating to fire in Palokka, Jyväskylä, in 2020
Lawsuits have been filed against SRV Construction Ltd, a subsidiary of SRV Group Plc, in the District Court of Central Finland, relating to the fire of the apartment building in Palokka, Jyväskylä, that took place in 2020. The apartment building is built by SRV. The total amount of lawsuits initiated by clients of the project and insurance companies is around 8 million euros.
The company does not agree with the lawsuits. Based on external legal assessments, there are strong grounds for rejecting the lawsuits. SRV has built the apartment building as a turnkey project according to the plans made by the clients of the project, and the reason behind the 2020 fire and its spreading has been the building's inadequate plans.
SRV has currently no information on the schedule for handling the lawsuits.
