A "weak" safety culture has been criticised after a seafarer was crushed to death on a Greek cargoship in the UK in February.

The Maritime Accident Investigation Branch (MAIB) said Alfred Ismaili, 36, was killed on the 2,500-dwt SMN Explorer (built 1986) at King's Lynn when a stowage space hatch cover fell on him.

The weight of the crewman climbing up the inside of the open hatch cover after its locking pins had been removed caused it to topple forward and slam shut, it added.
