Francis Sekandi, the spokesman for the Kisubi hospital where the female crew member was taken for emergency treatment following the fall on Wednesday, confirmed her death.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe received her from the Civil Aviation Authority in an ambulance, but she was already dead,\u201d Sekandi said late Thursday.<\/p>\n

Uganda\u2019s Civil Aviation Authority said an investigation into the incident has been opened.<\/p>\n

\u201cA female member of the crew appeared to have opened the emergency door and unfortunately fell off an Emirates aircraft that had safely landed and parked,\u201d it said in a statement.<\/p>\n

One witness, Isaac Seremba, who works at the airport, described the fall from one of the stationary plane\u2019s emergency exits as an apparent \u201csuicide\u201d attempt.<\/p>\n

Local newspaper The Daily Monitor also cited unnamed sources as saying the woman appeared to have jumped intentionally from the plane.<\/p>\n

Emirates meanwhile said, \u201ca member of our cabin crew, unfortunately, fell from an open door while preparing the aircraft for boarding\u201d.<\/p>\n

The airline promised to \u201cextend our full cooperation to the authorities in their investigation,\u201d the Dubai-based carrier said in a statement.<\/p>\n
