>A construction worker plunged four stories to his death yesterday when
>the platform he was standing on collapsed outside a Brooklyn building,
>officials and witnesses said.
>Muhamed Jabby, 32, fell face first onto concrete when the platform's
>pulley unhooked as he finished washing the windows of a Bushwick
>apartment building at 3:15 p.m., police said.
>Jabby's co-worker, Mahamadou Dukureh, managed to grab a rope and pull
>himself onto the roof of the four-story building.
>"He fell down, face down. He said nothing. He didn't scream," said
>Dukureh, 28, who had worked with Jabby, a West African immigrant, for
>about a year. "It's terrible, just terrible."
>Jabby moved to the U.S. from Gambia about six years ago, said his
>heartbroken brother, Abdoulie Tunkara, 30.
>"He was a very hardworking, good man. He was all about his family and he
>prayed regularly," Tunkara said.
>Only three months ago, Jabby returned briefly to his native country to
>get married. His relatives were trying to reach his wife in Gambia last
>night.
>"It's very sad for us. He's not like an employee. He's like my brother,"
>said Alex Matla, a supervisor at the site for Matla General
>Construction.
>Dukureh said he doesn't understand how Jabby fell because both of them
>had been wearing safety belts as they painted, fixed bricks and washed
>windows on the building facade.
>A city Buildings Department spokeswoman said the work being done did not
>require a permit. The federal Occupational Safety and Health
>Administration was investigating.
