Two workers killed in trench collapse

Two men working on a project for tap water company PDAM in the
West Java capital of Bandung were killed on Friday. The bodies of
Apit, 19, and Rohit, 27, were recovered one hour after the walls
of the trench they were digging collapsed on them at about 6:30
p.m.

Two other workers survived the accident while digging on a
pipeline installation project at the Cikapayang crossroads in
Dago. Another worker, Emuh, 46, who saw the accident, said the
victims were trying to install a pipe at a depth of four meters
when the collapse occurred. Police are questioning five people
over the cause of the accident. -- JP
