Four people were killed when the floor of a public toilet in southern Kyrgystan caved in, the ministry for emergency situations said Sunday.
 
Authorities had earlier reported that 15 people were injured in the accident on Saturday at a public toilet located in a market.
 
But four bodies were found in the rubble early Sunday.
 
The ministry said Deputy Prime Minister Taiyrbek Sarpashev and the Minister for Emergency Situations Kubatbek Boronov have "ordered checks to be carried out on all public toilets" after visiting the accident site.
