Indore, Jan 18: A 20-year-old man preparing for the civil services exam died after he fell unconscious at his coaching class in Indore in Madhya Pradesh due to a heart-related disorder, officials said on Thursday.

In footage from the coaching class' CCTV network, which went viral on social media, Raja Lodhi, a resident of Sagar district, can be seen falling unconscious on a table.

"Lodhi fell unconscious on Wednesday at the coaching class located in Bhanwarkuan and died during treatment at a nearby hospital. He was preparing for the civil services exam," said Additional Deputy Commissioner of Police Abhinay Vishwakarma.

Cardiologist Mahendra Chaurasia, who treated the student, said Lodhi was brought to the hospital in an unconscious state in the afternoon.

"He was put on life support system. We tried to revive him for 40 to 45 minutes, but his life could not be saved. The ECG report showed the 20-year-old was suffering from a genetic heart disorder called Brugada Syndrome," Chaurasia said.

He, however, said more details will be had once the post mortem report is received.

"Information about the death of the student due to a heart-related disorder has been registered at the local police station and the matter is being probed," the Additional DCP said.

Pratapgarh (UP) (PTI): The body of a 19-year-old woman was found hanging from a tree in a village under the Manikpur police station area here on Sunday morning, police said.

According to the police, the woman had gone to sleep after dinner on Saturday night but was found hanging in an orchard nearly 400 metres away from her home the following morning.

Additional Superintendent of Police (West), Brijnandan Rai, stated that the circumstances suggest foul play.

"The victim's slippers and undergarments were recovered 50 metres away from the spot where the body was found. There are visible injury marks on her body," Rai said.

While locals have alleged that the woman was murdered after being raped, the ASP said that it is "prima facie a case of murder."

"Based on the complaint filed by the victim's brother, a case of murder has been registered against unidentified persons. The body has been sent for a post-mortem examination," the officer added.

Police further clarified that if the medical report confirms sexual assault, relevant sections will be added to the FIR.

Forensic experts and police teams have collected evidence from the spot and are investigating the matter from all angles.
