A tragic incident in Mumbai has claimed the lives of four members of the same family, reportedly due to suspected food poisoning after eating biryani and later watermelon.
According to Indian media reports, the deceased include 40-year-old Abdullah Abdul Qadir, his 35-year-old wife Nasreen, and their two daughters, 16-year-old Ayesha and 13-year-old Zainab.
Police said the family had dinner with relatives on Saturday night, where they ate biryani. Later, around 1 a.m., they consumed watermelon. Within a few hours, their condition began to deteriorate.
By early morning, around 5 a.m., all four developed severe vomiting and symptoms of illness. They initially received treatment from a local doctor but were later shifted to another hospital as their condition worsened. Unfortunately, all four passed away during treatment.
Dr. Zaid Qureshi, who treated them at the hospital, said they were suffering from severe vomiting and diarrhea and had mentioned eating watermelon.
