A wall crashed down at a Parklands building site, killing two workers. The wall was part of a basement on Suswa Road. Police said recent rains caused the accident. Other officials claimed the wall stood on land borders, putting neighbors at risk. County officials condemned the site after the crash.
The developer must report to the authorities for questions. Officials arrested several workers earlier for digging without approved plans. Other workers tried to save their trapped friends. More of the wall fell during rescue attempts, forcing helpers to run away. Emergency teams came later to take the bodies to the morgue.
Police started investigating the accident with county officials. The team visited on Sunday and Monday as part of their work. Similar crashes happen often across the building industry. Last week, Linet Maina fell from the fifth floor of a Kariokor site. She was working with about 20 others when she slipped.
Maina landed on the second floor suffering deadly injuries. Her body waits at the City Morgue for tests. Another worker died at an Eastleigh site just days before. Frankline Makori fell from the seventh floor with a group of masons. Medical staff declared him dead when he arrived at the hospital.
