Child Electrocuted at Kapchagai Beach: Authorities Knew of Danger

On May 24th, an 11-year-old boy lost his life at Kapchagai beach, Kazakhstan, after a fatal encounter with exposed electrical wires. This tragedy highlights a critical issue of negligence by local authorities. According to sources, the administration was aware of the dangerous power lines for over a year, yet failed to implement necessary safety measures. "The administration knew about the problem, but nothing was done," stated a local resident. Two others who attempted to rescue the boy were also electrocuted, resulting in one sustaining serious injuries. The incident sparked outrage among the public, leading to the immediate relocation of the power poles after the tragedy. This incident underscores the need for increased safety measures and accountability from local authorities to prevent similar tragedies in the future. The investigation is ongoing.
