JEDDAH – In a matchless show of humanity, a Pakistani worker’s life was saved by the swift response of Saudi authorities.
According to the details, a Pakistani worker fell off an under-construction building in Jeddah city of the holy kingdom.
When the incident happened, a fellow worker called the ambulance to aid the worker. While the ambulance was on its way, it got caught up in the traffic, making it virtually impossible to resuce the worker.
The Saudi authorities did not let the traffic impact the health of the Pakistani worker and in fact dispatched a helicopter to avoid any traffic and rescue the worker in trouble.
