Tragic Suffocation Claims Three Lives in Bareilly Factory Cabin
Three security guards died from suffocation inside a factory cabin in Bareilly. Police confirmed the incident on Tuesday. The victims burned coal in a brazier to keep warm during their night shift. They then slept in the locked room.
Victims Identified as Young Workers
The deceased have been identified as Jogendra Singh, aged 30, Bhanu Kumar, aged 26, and Vivek Yadav, aged 27. All three men were performing night duty at the factory. Preliminary investigations point to toxic gas from the burning coal as the cause of death. Police noted no external injuries on the bodies.
Morning Discovery Leads to Chaos
Factory staff discovered the tragedy on Tuesday morning. They found the three guards lying unconscious inside the cabin. Repeated attempts to wake them failed. The staff immediately informed the police.
