At a time when the Rhodesis still “frozen” by the death of a 3 -year -old girl in a pool during a children’s party, the grandmother of the little one who accompanied her on the fateful day, described to LiveNews that everything was done within a short period of time.
“She didn’t have a lifeguard, the kid was sitting out there, she wasn’t in the pool because I went and put her on the sun and turned to bring the towel to get her out. It was two to three minutes, leaned in and fell and it was very eaten that was the problem, “the grandmother said of the tragedy in Rhodes.
The father of another child saw the little girl shocked in the water. He pulled it into bruising and unfortunately without his senses.
“The only move she made, her wool, that is, she leaned her head and raining her hair. I am afraid that when she made this move again, she fell in her face and fell into the water or slipped, I don’t know, she was sitting anyway, “she said eyewitness.
Parents of other children started Carpa. The rescuers arrived and the little girl was taken to Rhodes Hospital. Doctors made superhuman efforts, but failed to keep the child in life.
Lifeguardless
The Bar restaurant with the pool often organizes children’s parties. But he has no lifeguard as the law.
“All swimming tanks and all pools should have a lifeguard of independent depth. The law does not remove any pool The law states that any pools are more than a meter and a half meters and more than 50 rooms the property then the lifeguard is permanently motionless in the pool otherwise it may be wandering through the property, “says Hellenic Director of the Hellenic Lifeguard.
