In a tragic incident, a woman lost her life, and several others fell seriously ill after consuming momos from a street food stall on Banjara Hills Road No. 10. Following the incident, the Banjara Hills police have arrested six individuals responsible for running the stall.
The arrest came after a complaint was filed by the family of the deceased, identified as Reshma Begum, a resident of Singadi Basthi. According to the police report, Reshma Begum and her daughter had visited the market on October 28 and, on their way back, bought momos from a stall. Upon consuming the momos, the family members reportedly experienced severe symptoms, including diarrhea and vomiting. They were rushed to NIMS Hospital, where Reshma was declared dead upon arrival, while other family members were admitted for treatment.
