Three Chinese engineers have been arrested in connection with a building collapse last year in the Indian state of Chhattisgarh.
The engineers, who work for a Chinese firm, have been remanded in custody.
It is not yet clear what caused the accident, but officials from all companies involved have been detained.
The chimney was being built by India's privately-owned Bharat Aluminium Company at a power plant in Korba.
The company had hired the China-based Shandong Electric Power Construction Corporation to build the power plant, reports say.
The China-based company is then reported to have sub-contracted the chimney construction work to an Indian firm.
A recent report by the UN's International Labour Organisation said that nearly 50,000 Indians die from work-related accidents or illness every year.
