Man dies of suffocation as girl hides him from family in trunk

MUZAFFARGARH: A man died on Monday as a girl in an attempt to conceal him from her family members hid him in a chest, which led to his death by suffocation in Punjab's Muzaffargarh district.

According to police, the man identified as Mushtaq and a resident of Langar Sarai went to meet his cousin clandestinely at her residence.

When the girl’s family members arrived home, she tried to hide Mushtaq in a chest and locked him up. After remaining locked up for one and a half hour in the box, he died due to lack of oxygen.

Police sent the dead body for post mortem to a hospital.

Police registered the case and arrested two people for interrogation.
