Bhatkal, June 7: Police in the town have asked all the soft drink sellers not to sell 'Maa' mango fruit juice after a dead snake was found in a 200 ml tetra pack purchased by a local resident.
One of the two persons, who fell ill after consuming the juice from the snake-filled Maa pack three days ago, has still not recovered and undergoing treatment at a hospital in Kundapur.
Sayyad Mohammad Safwan, a resident of Good Luck road in Bhatkal had bought some tetra packs of the juice for consumption last Monday.
When his sister Saheefa (22) was drinking the juice using a straw, she felt some problem in sipping the juice. Her mother Umme Salma (45) also tried to sip the juice with help of straw. She grew suspicious and opened the packet slightly to witness a six-inch long dead snake inside the pack.
Within minutes both mother and daughter began vomiting and they were shifted to a hospital immediately.
Later, Safwan informed about the snake-filled pack to the owner of 'A-1 Bakery', from where he had bought it and in turn the owner informed the manufacturers.
On Wednesday Bhatkal town police asked all the soft drink sellers not to sell any tetra pack of 'Maa' bearing manufacturing date of March 17, 2012 and batch number B1233.
Shock
Sources said that the mother and daughter who shared the poisonous juice are still under shock. Though the mother has slightly recovered, she is still not taking food properly.
Dr Jalaluddin, who is treating the victims, said that the duo need some time to forget the incident and recover completely. However, he confirmed that both were out of danger.
The kidnapped schoolboy was rescued by the police and reunited with his parents. Son of a gift shop owner from Basavanagudi area in Bengaluru, Chirag has reportedly told police that decided to make some quick money to spend on cricket betting and gambling after learning kidnap tricks from the ‘Crime Patrol’. According to police, Chirag reached a private school around 3pm on Tuesday on a Bounce rental bike and zeroed in on a fourth standard student who was walking out of school. He told the boy he was his father's friend and that he required help to search for a relative who had gone missing. The boy believed Chirag and rode pillion on the bike. Chirag then engaged the boy in conversation and learnt about his father's business and got his mobile phone number. He then made a call to the boy's father, demanded Rs 5 lakh and warned him against approaching cops. However, the boy's father alerted Cottonpet police and special teams were formed to crack the case. While Cottonpet inspector Venkatesh TC's squad verified CCTV footage in and around the school, Chamarajpet inspector BG Kumaraswamy's team started tracking the suspect's mobile phone movements. An hour later, the suspect's location was traced to a hotel on the Lavelle Road-St Mark's Road stretch. Police rushed there, rescued the boy and arrested Chirag.
