Guan Houji, a 58-year-old part-time cleaner, was killed by work after only three months of his job!
On the evening of Thursday (21st), Guan Hou was killed when he accidentally fell from the garbage chute on the 35th floor to the ground while working at King Lok House in Shanjing Village, Tuen Mun.
Today (23rd) morning, a reporter from "Hong Kong 01" visited Jingle Building in Shanjing Village and found that the garbage rooms on the 35th floor and other floors were locked.
Some residents of the building said that the garbage room would only be opened when the cleaners arrived to clean up the garbage at night, and the garbage room was locked the rest of the time.
Some neighbours felt desolate for the death of a cleaner due to a work-related injury, and said helplessly: "There is nothing to do, it's (house) old."
The incident occurred at about 0:17 in the morning on Friday (22nd). The police received a report from an employee in the underground garbage room of Jingle Building, Mountain View Village, stating that a male worker was found fainted in one of the garbage bins, unconscious. .
The ambulancemen rushed to the report and immediately rushed the victim to Tuen Mun Hospital. However, he was dying and died after arriving at the hospital.
According to sources, Guan Nan was covered by a garbage dump at the time, and was only discovered because a little clothing was exposed.
The firefighter arrived at the scene to pull the trash can out of the garbage room and rescue Guan Nan, but it was too late.
After preliminary investigation by the police, it was suspected that Guan Nan fell into the garbage chute from the top floor of the 35th floor and flew to the ground garbage room. The case was classified as an "industrial accident" and the cause of the tragedy is being investigated.
