At the St Pancras Coroner's Court, it was revealed that a tragic accident had occurred in north London, resulting in the death of 81-year-old Fehim Ahmet. He had been enjoying a pleasant evening with his friends at a café in Finsbury Park when the unexpected happened.
As Mr. Ahmet sat with his companions, a man from the flat above the café suddenly fell through the skylight and landed on top of him. The impact caused severe brain and spinal injuries, and despite being rushed to the hospital, the pensioner sadly passed away after two weeks.
The man who fell through the skylight remains unnamed, but it was reported that he had been visiting his friends in the flat adjacent to the café. He had climbed out of the window onto the roof, but unfortunately, the skylight gave way under his weight. This tragic accident could have been avoided had the man not been on the roof in the first place.
According to the café owners, they had previously raised concerns with estate agencies Network Agencies about people climbing onto their roof. However, these complaints were seemingly ignored, and the consequences were devastating.
Coroner Mary Hassell noted in her report that Mr. Ahmet had been struck by the man falling through the skylight while sitting in the café at around 7:30 pm on July 7, 2024. She also pointed out that the man had gone onto the roof through a window from the flat above, and that the skylight he sat on was made of plastic and not strong enough to hold his weight.
Furthermore, it was revealed that the man had gone to visit his friends who were new tenants in the flat, which they had rented from Network Agencies. The coroner emphasized the importance of estate agents informing tenants about potential hazards in the properties they rent.
In this case, the café owner had already contacted the estate agent to complain about the tenants from the upstairs flat being on the roof. However, despite receiving emails about the issue, the estate agency failed to take any action or follow up with the tenants. This negligence ultimately led to the tragic death of Mr. Ahmet.
It is a reminder that we should always be aware of our surroundings and take necessary precautions to ensure our safety and the safety of others. Such a devastating accident could have been avoided with proper communication and attention from those responsible.
