The Ministry of Manpower said in a media release that Environmental Landscape Pte Ltd failed to conduct any risk assessment prior to cleaning an underground storage tank at 131 Lorong Semangka on 25 July 2016.
As Uddin was entering the confined space, Rahman switched on the socket extension to activate the floodlight. This sparked off an explosion which was strong enough to propel Uddin and the ladder out of the entrance.
