Bihar: After Saran, hooch claims three lives in Vaishali

They had consumed spurious liquor during “Chathi” (a celebration on the sixth day after the child is born) in Sardei village. Vikash’s brother Shambhu Chaudhary also consumed liquor and was stated to be critical.

Another incident was reported in Dhadhua village under Jandaha police station in Vaishali district when a person named Karan Kumar consumed liquor on Friday night. He complained of abdominal pain on Saturday morning. The family members rushed him to a hospital in Jandaha where he succumbed.

The district administration Vaishali has sent a medical team apart from the police to investigate the incident. Sources say that some more people had consumed spurious liquor so the death toll may rise.
