Suresh consumed pesticides in the office around 7.30 p.m. on August 17. When he started vomiting, the staff shifted him to the government hospital in Asifabad and informed his family staying in Asifabad.
After first aid, he was referred to a hospital in Mancherial. When his condition started deteriorating, he was shifted to a private hospital in Karimnagar, where he succumbed on August 20.
