Pile of iron rods falls from trailer at construction site, crushes labourer

GURGAON: A 21-year-old labourer died after being crushed under a pile of iron rods that fell from a trailer at a construction site near Ambience Mall on Saturday.According to police, the incident occurred around 4 pm in the DLF 3 area, where a private company is constructing a multi-storey building. Rohit, who was from Parwani Gauri village in UP’s Bahraich, worked for the company. He was extricated from under the debris by fellow workers and rushed to a nearby hospital, but was declared dead. A senior officer said, “No FIR has been registered as preliminary investigation suggests it was an accident. We talked to Rohit’s relatives, who also work in the same company.” Rohit was sitting on the stack of iron rods loaded on the trailer, which was being transported to the basement of the site. A truck, filled with construction waste, was already stationed on the ramp leading to the basement. As the waste-laden vehicle moved forward, it collided with the trailer, causing the iron rods to slip and fall. Rohit lost balance and was crushed underneath.
