Telangana Man Electrocuted in Sleep
Earlier this year, a 23-year-old man from Telangana, Maloth Anil, was electrocuted in his sleep after coming in contact with a live wire he had placed near his bed to charge his phone. Anil suffered a severe shock while asleep and was rushed to a nearby private hospital before being referred to a government facility, where he later died during treatment.
