A serious incident has occurred at a construction site in Acton, London, where a young Albanian man lost his life after falling into a ventilation shaft.
It is learned that the 19-year-old Renols Lleshi was helping to dismantle scaffolding in the roof garden on the 12th floor of a building under construction, in the Ark Soane Academy area on Mill Hill Road.
According to British media, the young man stepped on a ventilation shaft, causing him to fall six floors down, which caused his death.
British authorities have been contacted and found that the space was covered only with a sheet of plasterboard and roofing foam, insufficient safety measures.
It was further discovered that routine inspections of the facility did not include the roof garden area, resulting in the risk not being identified and no warning being given to the scaffolding team.
