A security guard died after fall at World Cup final venue – why are there not more answers?

See all tags Alegações

… with Argentina and France preparing to contest the final at the same stadium, there are still more questions than answers about how a second migrant worker died during this tournament...

One worker [at Al Sraiya] said he knew Kibue but could not talk about him. Another the next day said the same. A third said he knew him as well but has been told not to speak.

Some work for the same company as Kibue did. Others talked about separate incidents at Lusail which have left workers needing medical treatment. They do not know more about what happened to Kibue, or when his funeral might be able to take place. They were all understandably nervous about speaking...

Has safety guidance been reviewed? Have workers been issued with new or refreshed guidance? Have they been offered any support?

The Supreme Committee and Al Sraiya Security Services did not respond to questions from The Athletic...

On the first Saturday of the tournament… The Athletic had found Kenyan workers the most willing to share their experiences…

Their criticism was reserved more strongly for Kenyan companies that had exploited the workers with the misleading promise of big salaries in return for recruitment fees to travel to Qatar. They backed up their complaints with paperwork proving their point.
