පහල තියෙන්නෙ 2017 දි වෙච්ච සිදුවීමක්. 2011දිත් මෙහෙම වෙලා තියෙනවලු.
An attempt to keep warm by lighting a barbecue grill inside a Nuwara Eliya Hotel room proved fatal to a 40-year-old father of two last week.
The victim, identified as W.R. Nalinda Priyadarshana, a resident of Bogamua, Yakkala, had succumbed to carbon monoxide poisoning from the release of toxic fumes from the grill, an inquiry into his death was told. The victim, along with two others, had brought the barbecue grill inside the room to ward off the biting cold in the night.
According to the post-mortem examination conducted by Nuwara Eliya’s Judicial Medical Officer (JMO) Gayan Bandara Kumarasinha, the cause of death was due to inhaling carbon monoxide.
Mr. Priyadarshana was the owner and driver of a bus that had brought a group of people from Grandpass to Nuwara Eliya for a three-day trip. The group had included 16 adults and 17 children. He had been staying in a room along with his assistant and the hotel’s chef on the night of January 15 when the chef had brought the barbecue grill into the room and lighted the coal in the grill to keep warm. The three men were found unconscious inside the room by the hotel’s owner the next day. Though all three were rushed to Nuwara Eliya Hospital, Mr. Priyadarshana was pronounced dead on admission.
A similar incident had happened at a hotel in
Nuwara Eliya in 2011, when a young couple died after they were poisoned during the night from a barbecue grill they had brought into the room to keep warm.
