As the saying goes: "Endure the calm for a while, take a step back and open the sky." But why is this owner so impulsive? Isn't he aware of the dangers of working at height?
On June 30, in a community in Chongqing, a property owner cut the ropes of high-altitude workers simply because he destroyed his own flowers and plants, which could not help but send chills down everyone's back.
Event details
On June 30, next to a high-rise building in a community in Chongqing. Due to the large area of the exterior wall tiles, urgent repairs were required. Four workers were suspended from a height of 100 meters on safety ropes, carefully cleaning up the tile fragments.
At this moment, a property owner suddenly rushed forward, holding a shovel, and slashed at the safety rope. You must know that this is a high-altitude operation in a building with 32 floors and a height of more than 100 meters!
Fortunately, the security officer on the roof of the building spotted and rushed forward in time, snatched the shovel from the owner's hand, and stopped his crazy behavior. So why did this owner slash at the safety rope? Isn't he aware of the dangers of working at height?
It turned out that the owner had built a garden on the roof of the building, and his flowers and plants were damaged during the construction, so he was agitated and obstructed the construction of the workers. (Hey, this explanation is really hard to understand.) ）
"It's so thrilling! I was stupefied. Afterwards, Mr. Liu, a worker working at height, still has lingering palpitations when he recalls that scene. He told reporters that they were working intently at the time and did not notice the approach of the owner at all.
It wasn't until the safety rope was cut that they realized what was happening. Fortunately, it was a two-rope operation, and the main rope was not damaged, so they were able to return to the surface safely.
After the incident, the business owner also realized his mistake. Under the coordination of the police, the owner also realized his mistake and reached a settlement with the workers, agreeing to compensate and settle privately.
If there were really casualties, or if the four workers really wanted to be held responsible, the owner might really be living a "life of stepping on a sewing machine".
Article 234 of the Criminal Law of the People's Republic of China stipulates that anyone who intentionally injures the body of another person shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years, short-term detention or controlled release. Whoever commits the crime in the preceding paragraph, causing serious injury, is to be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than three years but not more than ten years; Whoever causes death or seriously injures a person by especially cruel means, causing serious disability, is to be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than 10 years, life imprisonment, or death. Where this Law provides otherwise, follow those provisions.
Take the incident of aerial work that occurred in Zhongyuan District, Zhengzhou City, Henan Province on December 31, 2017, Cao was dissatisfied with Yan's dismantling and installation of old water pipes on the exterior wall of a certain building.
Cao then used a kitchen knife to cut the safety rope for aerial work above Yan's head at the window of his bathroom on the fourth floor, causing Yan to fall downstairs and causing multiple fractures in Yan's body. In the end, the court found the defendant Cao Moumou guilty of intentional injury and sentenced him to nine months in prison with a one-year probation.
end
It is said that "safety belts and life belts", for workers working at heights, safety ropes are not it! It should not be cut off for any reason.
At the same time, various cases also remind us that when facing contradictions and conflicts, we must stay calm and control our emotions. You can't be like this owner, blinded by anger and doing irreparable wrongdoing. Remember that "impulse is the devil"!
