Dubai: An Egyptian died while his colleague sustained serious injury after falling from a scaffolding Tuesday afternoon.

Brigadier Khalil Ebrahim Al Mansouri, head of CID, said the workers were on working on construction site.

It is alleged that the company didn’t adhere to safety precautions. The scaffolding was not built to handle the weight of two workers.

The site engineer has been referred to public prosecution.

The Egyptian worker died on spot while his Bangladeshi colleague sustained severe injuries on a construction site in Deira.

A witness informed gulf news of the incident saying that she saw two bodies on the street next to a hotel in Deira. Police cordoned off the area.

The incident was initially thought to be a suicide but investigations indicated it was an accident caused by the lack of adherence to safety precautions.
