Two Women Die in Nawalpur After Found Unconscious
Pokhara. Police have started an investigation into the incident where two women found unconscious in Gaindakot, Nawalpur on Sunday died during treatment.
They were found unconscious in a field on the left side of the East-West Highway near Akalamai Temple in Gaindakot Municipality-10. After receiving information from locals, the police rescued them and took them to Bhedabari Municipal Hospital. The hospital declared them dead during treatment.
Those who died are 38-year-old Kabita Rai, a resident of Jaimini Municipality-9, Baglung, who was living on rent in Harkapur, Gaindakot-12, and Kanchhi Rai, about 45 years old, originally from Bhojpur and living in Pitauji, Gaindakot-10.
Both were friends and made a living by daily wages, police said. The cause of their death is not yet known. However, preliminary studies suggest that death may have been caused by excessive alcohol consumption.
According to Anil Pandit, spokesperson and DSP of the District Police Office, Nawalpur, based on the initial situation of the incident, it appears that death may have been caused by excessive alcohol consumption.
'Further details are yet to come. We are engaged in a detailed investigation,' he said, 'Based on the initial situation, our assessment is that death may have been caused by excessive alcohol consumption.'
They were found unconscious in a field near the highway. Locals said that they consumed snacks and alcohol while sitting in the same field. Packets of ready-to-eat snacks like kurkure and bottles of alcohol were found at the scene.
'No external injuries were found on the bodies of the deceased. Therefore, it is estimated that this situation may have been caused by excessive alcohol consumption or its reaction,' he said.
Even if death was caused by alcohol consumption, the fact that both died at the same time is a mystery, according to eyewitnesses. They have also raised questions about the quality or toxicity of the alcohol. DSP Pandit said that an investigation is underway into where they purchased the alcohol and whether anyone else was present at the time.
The bodies have been sent for post-mortem. 'Whether it was an alcohol overdose or if there was any other issue with the alcohol will only be confirmed after the doctor's post-mortem report is received,' he said, 'Beer was also found with them. The investigation is ongoing.'
