A routine inspection in the gallery of a chrome mine in Martanesh, Bulqiza, ended tragically for its administrator, who lost his life after an underground accident.
The victim is 62-year-old Sulejman Kurti, who entered the Thekna mine to inspect the works on November 4, 2025. During the inspection at the work site, he was injured in circumstances that remain unclear, and the injuries he sustained caused his death.
After the event, the police accompanied several members of the mining entity's management and technical staff to obtain their testimonies and clarify how the accident occurred.
Under the direction of the Prosecutor's Office, the investigative group began verifications to determine the causes of the event and document the circumstances in which the administrator lost his life.
The accident brought attention back to safety in the Bulqiza mining galleries, where serious incidents with fatal consequences for people working underground have been recorded over the years.
