Abohar, December 29
Three minor siblings allegedly died of suffocation due to firewood smoke at their house near the Seed Farm Colony here last night. The condition of their parents, who have been referred to Faridkot for specialised treatment, is stated to be critical.
Hailing from UP, Krishan (35) had reportedly been living along with his wife Radha (32) and children Pooja (7), Deep (5) and Poonam (2) at a poultry farm near the colony for the past few years.
When the family didn’t wake up in the morning, a neighbour is learnt to have opened the house door and found all of them lying unconscious. All five were rushed to the Civil Hospital where doctors declared the children “brought dead”. Krishan and his wife were referred to Guru Gobind Singh Medical College and Hospital, Faridkot. — OC
