At approximately 11:20 the victim discovered a mine. This was his third that day and the first day that he had found any at that site. Instead of informing his Section Leader as he was required to do, he investigated it on his own. For some reason the mine (or perhaps mines) detonated leaving him very seriously injured . [See Medical report.]The victim was casevaced by helicopter to Quelimane hospital arriving one hour after the accident occurred. He died at 16:30 that day. The death certificate gave haemorrhage as the cause of death. The helicopter was deemed fortuitous, and some suggestions for improving reliable Medevac were made
