Boy dies after school gate falls on him
8/6/2011 11:19:29 PM
KATRA: A 4th class student was today killed at Latori in Reasi after the steel gate of the government primary school where he studied fell on him. Amit Singh (10), son of Shamsher Singh of Latori, was playing with the gate during recess hour at about 11.25 am when it fell on him and the brick pillar supporting it also broke, police sources said.
He was immediately rushed by some school teachers to hospital where he was pronounced brought by doctors. After post-mortem, the body was handed over to his family for last rites.
Amit's family has demanded registration of a case against the school management and the contractor who built the gate pillar. The gate fell because inferior quality material was used in the construction of its pillars, they alleged.
Police had, however, initiated inquest proceedings in the case under section 174 of CrPC.
Naib-tehsildar Sher Singh later visited the victim's family and provided them the official assistance of Rs 20,000.
