The kitchen boy - (IP) was exiting out of junior ablution behind one crew
member. The person in front after coming out closed the door behind him
without realising IP’s presence. The IP was too close to the door behind
him and his right hand index finger got trapped between the swing side
and frame of the door. Medical first aid was given to him immediately in
the camp by the camp boss. The injury was underestimated by the camp
