Imagine this – a child who was supposed to enjoy a carefree day by the pool ended up in the worst possible scenario. On Thursday in Zagreb, in the Maksimir area, a child drowned in a pool that was part of a rental property. The police confirmed this horrific accident, and medical help was provided immediately at the scene and at the Clinical Hospital Center Zagreb, but sadly, the child did not survive. Details on how the tragedy happened are still unknown, which only fuels public concern.
This tragedy casts a dark shadow over the safety of rental properties in Croatia, especially those with pools. Did someone fail to provide adequate protection? Were safety measures in place? These are the questions troubling everyone following this case.
While the family and community cope with the loss, others wonder – how many more such properties are unsafe? And how many more lives are at risk due to negligence or poor regulation? This tragedy is not just a sad event but a wake-up call for all of us to take safety and responsibility in tourism and rentals seriously.
