Deneth Induwara who died by slipping from guava tree and being trapped in between two branches

Parents are unable to inquire into certain activities in which children engage themselves all by themselves and such an unfortunate accident is reported with a 9 year old child embracing death in Anuradhapura area.

Deneth Induwara living in the hamlet of Ellawewa, Ranpathvila, Kahatagasliyedda died as a result of his neck being caught in between two branches when he

had tried to pluck guavas from a guava tree. It was understood that the child after having returned home from school was of the habit of  plucking and eating guavas as usual by strolling down the yard and the parents had not taken special care to look into him. They had in fact been to the chena and in such an instance the boy who had tried to climb and pluck guavas has faced this mishap.

When he had climbed the said guava tree in front of the house and pluck guavas his foot had slipped and his neck had got caught in between two branches of the tree. The parents had come to know of this accident only a short while later. He was later dispatched to Kahatagasliyedda Hospital; however even by that time the boy had closed his eyes forever, the police said. Deceased Deneth Induwara is a student following his education in grade 4 of Ranpathwila Ellawewa Vidyalaya.
