A young man died after being bitten by a snake at Chatkhil upazila in Cumilla district early Wednesday.
The dead was Nupur Karmakar, son of Kunduli Karmakar, a resident of Harikrishnapur village unnder Badalkot union. He was an office assistant at Sonaimuri UNO office.
Locals said a poisonous snake bit Nupur’s leg while he was walking on road near his house at around 10 pm. He was rescued and taken to Chatkhil Upazila Health Complex. But as there was no anti-venom for snake bite at that upazila health complex, he was sent to Cumilla Medical College Hospital around 11 pm.
