The police constable's gym mates rushed to help Vishal and took him to hospital where doctors declared him dead.
A 24-year-old police constable died, allegedly due to a heart attack, during a workout at a gym in Hyderabad on Thursday. The constable named Vishal was a resident of Bowenpally and posted at Asif Nagar police station. This is yet another case of sudden cardiac death that have been reported in recent months. According to the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI), one-fifth of all deaths in India are caused by heart attacks, cardiac arrests, and strokes, including in the younger population.
In the video that has appeared on social media, Vishal is seen performing push-ups. After finishing his set, he moves to another area and appears to be coughing while leaning forward.
Vishal takes the support of a gym machine nearby but his coughing becomes vigorous. Moments later, he sits on the ground and collapses.
Others rush to help the young man lying on the ground. One of them calls the gym trainer who tries to revive him.
