An Adelphi man died yesterday midday after the tractor he was operating in a rice field located at the backlands of New Forest, Canje, Berbice, toppled, submerging him in the mud and pinning him to his death.
Dead is Hatim Khan, also known as `Jackson’, 64, of Lot 13 Adelphi Village, East Canje.
According to information gathered, Khan who transported school children on a daily basis, would visit the ranch regularly, since he was a friend of the owner and his workmen.
