One Person Entered First—Then Others Followed
According to local sources, it all began when a mobile phone accidentally fell into the septic tank. One person went down to get it. But when he didn’t come back, four others entered one by one to help. Sadly, all of them lost consciousness inside the tank, likely due to toxic gas.
They were quickly taken to the Moulvibazar 250-Bed Hospital, but doctors declared four of them dead on arrival. One person is still being treated at Sylhet MAG Osmani Medical College Hospital.
