"The victim is thereafter along a narrow metal stairs to the hold descended" to the circumstances, outlines labor prosecutor Jan Vermeir from Office of Dendermonde. "The stage was sixteen meters deep and very steep. Possibly he was wet because it had a thunderstorm around that hour above Waaslandhaven. The sailor has almost certainly slipped, hit his head and then fell down. "
The staircase that took the victim is rarely used. Only in special cases, such as an alarm, he is serving. The deceased sailor did not have much experience and made only a few days since part of the ship's crew.
