A 40-year-old woman worker was buried alive today when loose soil fell on her at a construction site at Southweek area in Ooty.

The woman, Mary, along with four other workers was removing the debris, when the loose soil fell on her from a height of about 25 feet, police said.

All the attempts by coworkers to pull her out were fruitless. Soon, the fire and rescue personnel arrived and managed to dislodge the soil and remove her, but by then Mary had died.

The body was sent to the Government Hospital for post mortem. Cases have been filed and investigations are on.
