The Karuppayurani police have registered a case of suspicious death under Section 174 of the CrPC over death of a 27-year-old man outside a private hospital in Veerapanjan on Saturday night.
The deceased, identified as S. Raja Mohammed from North Street in Karuppayurani, was brought to the hospital with injuries by a few men. The nurse asked them to take him to another hospital since doctors were not available. The men, however, abandoned Raja Mohammed outside the hospital and left.
When ‘108’ ambulance reached the spot after being alerted by some bystanders, it was found that Raja Mohammed had already died.
