Boy meets tragic end

Falls into uncovered pipeline of sand dredger

Staff Correspondent
Eight-year-old Tanvir was looking forward to the weekend as he would be able to spend time with his mother.
Tanvir, a madrasa student, stayed at the institution's dormitory. On Friday morning, his mother took him to their Darussalam residence in Dhaka.
Tania Begum, a garment worker, however, had to go to work. She left the house around 9:00am.
Tanvir then went out to play with his friends. They noticed a pool of water by the roadside. Excited, they decided to jump inrightaway.
The boys did not know that there was pipeline of a sand suction dredger underneath the water.
As soon as Tanvir jumped, he fell inside the pipeline. The incident took place around 10:00am. The 60-foot long pipeline was connected with the dredger in the middle of Turag river.
Locals tried to get him out but to no avail. So, they informed fire service officials.
Around 10:35am, a rescue team reached the spot and was able to bring Tanvir out around 11:30am.
"First, we dug mud and brought the pipeline out to trace his location. Later, we cut the joint of the pipeline to rescue him,” said Abdul Ahad, a fire service official.
But it was too late as Tanvir had already died.
According to fire service officials and locals, if the owner of the dredger had not kept the pipe uncovered, the accident could have been averted. Such pipeline needs to be covered up while it is not in use, they added.
Selimuzzaman, officer-in-charge of Darussalam Police Station, said the boy's mother filed a case with the police station accusing sand trader Abdul Hakim and several other unidentified people of negligence.
"We are conducting drives to arrest the trader and his associates. They went into hiding soon after the incident," he added.
On December 26, 2014, three-year-old Jihad died after falling into a 17-inch diameter abandoned shaft, near his house at Bangladesh Railway Colony in Shahjahanpur while playing with his friends. His body was pulled out by a band of volunteers the following day.
