SHIMLA: In a tragic incident that has sent shockwaves through political circles, Veer Soren, the 19-year-old grandson of former Jharkhand Chief Minister Champai Soren and son of Babulal Soren, passed away under mysterious circumstances in Manali on Tuesday. The young man's sudden demise has left authorities scrambling for answers as they await crucial medical reports.
Details of the Manali Trip
According to police reports, Veer Soren arrived in Manali with a group of friends on February 22, checking into a homestay located in the picturesque Simsa area near Manali. The group embarked on sightseeing adventures the following day, visiting the scenic Solang valley and Sethan villages along the renowned Hamta Pass route before returning to their accommodation in the evening.
The Fateful Day
The situation took a dramatic turn on February 24 when Veer decided to remain in his room while his companions ventured out for the day. Upon their return, the friends found Veer complaining of an intense, debilitating headache, as confirmed by investigating police officers. Concerned for his wellbeing, they administered medication to alleviate his discomfort, after which he retired to bed.
Tragedy struck around 2:30 pm when friends heard a disturbing thud from Veer's room. Rushing to investigate, they discovered him unconscious on the floor, having apparently fallen from his bed. Most alarmingly, they observed foam forming around his mouth, indicating a serious medical emergency.
Emergency Response and Hospitalization
Acting swiftly, Veer's friends transported him to the nearest government hospital in Manali, where medical professionals immediately initiated cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in a desperate attempt to revive him. Despite their exhaustive efforts and thorough examination, doctors were unable to save the young man and subsequently declared him deceased.
Police Investigation and Possible Causes
Manali Deputy Superintendent of Police informed media outlets that the precise cause of death would only be determined following the completion and analysis of the postmortem report. However, preliminary assessments from senior police officials suggest that high altitude sickness might have played a significant role in this tragic outcome, given the elevated terrain of the region where the incident occurred.
Family Response and Ongoing Procedures
Meanwhile, grief-stricken family members of Veer Soren have arrived in Manali to oversee proceedings and claim the body. As of the latest reports, the postmortem examination had not yet been conducted, leaving many questions unanswered about the exact circumstances surrounding this untimely death.
The incident has cast a pall over the political community, with many expressing condolences to the Soren family while awaiting definitive answers about what exactly transpired during that fateful Manali trip.
