Nepali worker falls to his death at MACC building site

MACC this death was on your watch as there is an element of corruption because the equipment was substandard and no maintenance of the equipment causes it to fail and killing the worker. Arrest the contractor for buying substandard equipment and also arrest the inspector who certified the equipment as safe to use because he may have been paid off by the contractor to overlook the defects and substandard of equipment and also for failing to change the wire rope sling which hangs the gondola and also the wire rope supplied who supplied the cheap wire rope and arrest the person who gave the contractor the cheap contract for a bribe. See all cutting corners for a bit extra cash and poor Nepali worker is the victim and so are his family. Only in Malaysia that it happens and corruption kills

Bhim Bahadur Katuwal falls from a high-rise building onto a makeshift gondola in Precinct 7 in Putrajaya.

PUTRAJAYA: A Nepali worker was killed after falling from a high-rise building onto a makeshift gondola in Precinct 7 here today, and seriously injuring a Bangladeshi co-worker who was in the structure at the time.

Bhim Bahadur Katuwal, 31, who is believed to have fallen from the building under construction at the new site of the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC), died on the spot.

The Bangladeshi worker, Mohammad Abul Hosen, 45, broke his right hand in the 8.50am incident and was taken to the Putrajaya Hospital.

Putrajaya police chief ACP Rosly Hassan, when contacted, said police did not rule out the possibility that Bhim Bahadur fell from the 23rd floor (roof top) or from the 17th floor because only these floors had open spaces.

“Investigations found that at the time, the Bangladeshi worker was installing a sunshade in the gondola when all of a sudden the Nepali worker came crashing down onto it, injuring Mohammad Abul at the same time,” he said.

Rosly said, so far, there has been no other witnesses to the incident.

“The case is still under investigation. Police have classified the case as sudden death,” he said.
