A Chinese national lost his life on Tuesday after being crushed by a hydraulic jack deep inside the Barapukuria Coal Mine in Dinajpur.
The deceased was identified as Wang Jiang Gou, a shift manager in the facility.
Deputy General Manager (DGM-Mine Operations) of the industry Khan Zafar Siddique said the machinery was being transferred to another phase on completion of coal extraction from phase-1305.
Jiang Gou was accidentally crushed under the jack deep inside the mine, leaving him critically injured, Zafar said.
He was rushed to Rangpur Medical College Hospital where doctors declared him dead around 7:30pm, the DGM said.
Sub-inspector of Barapukuria Police Outpost Mintu Chandra Roy said Chinese authorities will decide where the deceased will be cremated here or not.
