There has been another fatal accident in the workplace in Málaga, the eleventh this year and the third in less than a week.
It happened in Calle General Ibáñez where a man fell into an interior patio during building work.
A team of firemen rescued the body from the patio but the ambulance crew could only pronounce the 42 year old Argentinean victim dead at the scene.
The Junta de Andalucia has ordered a halt to work at the site while possible safety irregularities are being investigated.
On August 28th a man died when he fell from the roof of the Congress Hall in Marbella, and a day later an 18 year old was killed after falling five metres at a swimming pool construction site in Nerja.
