Close to three months since the Ministry of Labour launched an investigation into the death of Cindy Jattan, who was crushed to death while on duty at the Gafoors Hardware Store at Land of Canaan on the East Bank of Demerara (EBD), it is yet to conclude its report.
On several occasions, Stabroek News had contacted the Ministry’s Occupational Health and Safety Consultant Gweneth King, who regularly noted that the investigation was still underway and that it was expected to be “completed soon.” When contacted last Tuesday, she noted that the ministry is “in the process of finalizing the report.”
