Wei Dingfeng, a villager of Pagoda Village, Nanchang, Jiangxi
Reflect to "Urban Scene".
Her 85-year-old mother fell the other day
Hit your head out
Three ribs were also broken
The old man was injured like this at such an age
The heart of a child is very painful
Wei Dingfeng thinks
The village committee is responsible for this matter
The old man who was recuperating in bed in front of him was Wei Dingfeng's mother, and how did the old man get hurt?
Wei Dingfeng: My mother saw the socks falling, picked up the socks and stepped on the board, the board was rotten, because the manhole cover was not made, it was built with a thin triangle plate to cover it, and the cover was not made, and it was not done for three years.
The manhole Wei Dingfeng is referring to is in front of her house, which was built by the village three years ago to solve the problem of water accumulation on the road. Wei Dingfeng said that since it was built, this manhole has no cover, and has always been covered with a thin plate.
Wei Dingfeng told the city scene reporter that on the day of the accident, she found the Pagoda Village Committee and reported the incident to Wei Hongqun, a village cadre. The other party said that the village would investigate and verify. The next day, he replied that the old man fell by himself, so there was no compensation.
On the afternoon of April 15, the urban on-site reporter came to the Pagoda Village Committee to understand the situation, and the on-site staff were silent.
Subsequently, the urban scene reporter dialed the phone number of Wei Hongqun, a village cadre, but the other party never answered.
So, is the village committee responsible for this matter? The reporter also consulted a lawyer.
Lawyer Liu Fengping: Ms. Wei and her mother's accident must have been a little negligent. Of course, the most important thing is that the manhole cover did not take safety protection measures, which led to the occurrence of this accident.
Article 1258 of the Civil Code stipulates that if the excavation, repair and installation of underground facilities in a public place or road causes damage to others, and the builder cannot prove that it has set up obvious signs and taken safety measures, it shall bear tort liability. Where manholes and other underground facilities cause damage to others, and the manager cannot prove that he has fulfilled his management duties, he shall bear tort liability. Lawyer Liu believes that as the builder, the pagoda village committee has the obligation to maintain and manage the manhole involved.
Lawyer Liu Fengping: Judging from the video, there are indeed no reminder signs around this manhole, nor are there any protective measures, which is a huge safety hazard. In this case, the village committee has a certain amount of dereliction of duty. If such an act occurs, Ms. Wei's mother has the right to file a lawsuit with the court to demand compensation from the village committee.
