Bangalore man mistakes poison for medicine in the dark

Bangalore: Don't consume medicine in the dark is a lesson that 23-year-old Sreekanth from Bangalore wished he had learnt in life.

Sreekanth was rushed to Victoria Hospital at 10 pm by his parents after he accidentally consumed poison. Sreekanth, who is unemployed, lives with his parents at Chikbellapur.

"There was no electricity and he accidentally picked up a can of poison, instead of his gastric medicine,"said Sreekanth's father, Kalappa. His parents rushed him to Victoria Hospital, when they found him in the bathroom.

Dr Shivkumar said, "He should make a full recovery. However, it depends on how long it takes for his body to heal. But, he is out of the woods."
