THE government will pay $1 million to the lone survivor and the families of the four men who died in the Paria tragedy on February 2022.

On February 25, 2022, Land and Marine and Construction Services (LMCS) divers – Kazim Ali Jnr, Rishi Nagassar, Fyzal Kurban, Yusuf Henry and Christopher Boodram – were repairing a 30-inch pipeline at Paria’s Pointe-a-Pierre facility when they were sucked into it.

Only Boodram managed to escape. LMCS was contracted by Paria to repair the pipeline.
