Two miners died after being hit by a trolley inside a coal mine in Balochistan’s coal-rich Dukki district.
According to Levies sources, the miners were extracting coal from deep within the mine when the trolley hit them. The bodies of the two miners, who died on the spot, have been shifted to District Headquarters Hospital Dukki.
The sources said the deceased miners who were from Afghanistan had been working in the Dukki coal mines for the last few years.
“There is no safety for coal miners,” said the central leader of Pakistan Mines Labour Association, Bakht Nawab, adding that miners extract coal at the cost of their lives.
