Another construction worker has succumbed to his injuries, two weeks after falling at a site in Gżira, the police said.
The 22-year-old Syrian national, who lives in Birkirkara, fell down an internal shaft at a construction site in Triq Madonna tal-Ġebla on December 14.
Police said in a statement on Saturday that the worker had lost his battle.
A number of accidents in recent months have highlighted the problem of lack of safe practices in the construction industry.
Among others, a 26-year-old man died on November 26 after falling nine storeys at a construction site in Sliema, the incident captured on video.
