A 22–year-old woman from Noombal near Vanagaram in Chennai allegedly died of food poisoning on Wednesday (September 18, 2024) after she consumed shawarma from a local eatery.
A senior police official from the Avadi Police Commissionerate said Swetha, a resident of Thiruveedi Amman Street near Vanagaram, worked as a teacher at a private school in Noombal.
Over a week ago, she reportedly ate shawarma from a fast food restaurant while she was out with her brother. On reaching home, she also consumed fish curry.
The same night, she began vomiting and fainted. Her family immediately rushed her to a private hospital in Porur, but as her condition did not improve, she was brought to the Government Stanley Hospital on Tuesday (September 17, 2024). The next day, she died as she did not respond to treatment.
The Maduravoyal police are awaiting the postmortem report to confirm whether her death was caused by the food she consumed. A case has been registered.
