Books – Muhammad Shaban:
An elderly woman in the mid-1970s did not congratulate her on undertaking the restoration of the roof of her old house in the Haram area. His life tragically ended in the rubble.
On Monday night, a worker attended, according to a prior arrangement, to carry out restoration work and a layer of insulation for the two-story property No. 26 bis (ground – first loft) on Misr and Sudan Street near the Haram tunnel, west of Giza Governorate.
A few meters from the house, an old man sits in his comfortable chair, chatting with the neighbors. A brief conversation took place between him and “Nani”, who told him: “Let the valley work as insulation”, before being busy following the implementation of the insulation layer.
The old woman did not know that they would be the last words of her elderly neighbor. The condition of the old house could not bear the restoration work, so the roof and floor of the top floor collapsed and a number of cement sacks in the apartment in which the old woman lived alone died, to her immediate death.
Immediately after being notified of the incident, Major General Hisham Sadiq, director of the General Administration of Civil Protection in Giza, paid a ground rescue team led by Major General Alaa Saeed, Lieutenant Colonel Muhammad Imam and Lieutenant Colonel Mustafa Abdel Halim.
Rescue teams managed to retrieve the old woman’s body from the rubble and take it to the morgue at Al Haram Hospital. The health inspector’s report indicated that the death was due to a skull fracture and alleged internal bleeding.
The worker was treated at the scene of the accident, and it was found that he was injured in the past when he was standing on the roof of the property before its collapse.
Police forces imposed a security cordon around the property after its evacuation, in coordination with neighborhood officials. To preserve pedestrian safety and notify the Fallout Structures Committee for inspection.
