    Very sad, May his soul rest in peace.
    This kind of incident occurs regularly because of lack of knowledge. One must not enter confined space with out proper precautions. Responsible must do the gas checks & confirm that the space is free from dangerous fumes or asphyxiating gases before entering any tanks and pits( including sewage pits)
