The Harbour Police launched an investigation after the chief engineer of a cargo ship owned by Abu Dhabi, which was anchored at the Galle port, died after he fell into the sea today.

The deceased has been identified as Aleksejev Vitalli, a Lithuanian national.

The cargo ship Sea Parrot belonging to Abu Dhabi arrived at the Galle port on 29 May due to adverse weather conditions and remained at anchor until the weather improved. 

During the morning hours today, while engaged in work on the top deck of the ship, the chief engineer had reportedly fallen into the sea around 05.00 am.

Subsequently, the ship's crew rescued and rushed him to Karapitiya Hospital, where he was pronounced dead. (D.G. Sugathapala)

  • Doctors Have No Scientific Answers And They Have Been Fooling Us For Long Long Time Thursday, 01 June 2023 08:33 PM

    When people are rushed to hospital 99% of the time they end up dead in hospital. Our respect for the Doctors is so high, we never ask the question “Why Could Not The Doctors Save The Person” ?

    You are absolutely right. We can’t go on like this. Bring in the Scientists into medicine to lead. Let the doctors go home.

    In this case according to the article, he was already dead on arrival to the hospital. I don6't think any Doctor has still discovered a way of bringing the dead to life...

    Keep defending the doctors when all evidence point to their “ Zero Knowledge in Science”.

    Sarath I think you have got medicine and science confused, a already dead person cannot be revived by doctors.
