Two workers
electrocuted at Tema PSC Shipyard
Tema, Feb 03, Ghanadot/GNA - Two men, working on
a vessel at the Tema PSC Shipyard were electrocuted on two
separate days last week.
The names of the workers were not immediately known and the
Contractor, for whom they were working for, was not available
for comment when the GNA visited the PSC Tema Shipyard on
Tuesday morning.
Management staff of the company was in a meeting and none of the
workers would volunteer any information when pressed and
referred the GNA to the Contractor.
However, information gathered indicated that the first man met
his untimely death early last week when he was pulling a naked
cable while the second whose case occurred late in the week was
also working on an electrical appliance.
Meanwhile, the Tema Regional Police Crime Officer, Assistant
Commissioner of Police (ACP) Joshua Dogbeda confirmed the
incidents and said the Railway and Harbours police are
investigating it.
The bodies of the two men have been deposited at the mortuary
for autopsy.
