”Two days back, a complaint was lodged at the Janakganj police station against the man, a resident of Gol Pahadia area, in which he was accused of luring away a minor girl. On Thursday night, the man and the girl arrived at the police station, where their family members were also present, to inform the cops that both of them have consumed sulphas, an agricultural fumigant, by mixing it with a mouth freshener,” Gwalior Superintendent of Police Amit Sanghi said.
It later came to light that while the man, identified as Krishna Jain, had consumed the poison, the girl had kept the bottle in the pocket of her jeans pants without swallowing its contents, he said.
The police personnel seized the bottle from her possession and rushed the man to the government-run Jaya Arogya Hospital, where he died on Friday morning, the SP said.
