A tragedy rocks the popular ski resort of Gudauri in Georgia! Twelve people, including eleven Indian citizens, are dead – and the cause could be an insidious poison: carbon monoxide! The authorities are alerted and the investigation is in full swing.
On Saturday, the bodies were discovered in a sleeping area above an Indian restaurant. Georgian police have confirmed the shocking details. A Georgian citizen is also among the victims. The circumstances are mysterious: a power generator was switched on in an indoor area after the power supply was interrupted. A dangerous mistake that had fatal consequences!
The first investigations
Georgia's Interior Ministry said initial tests showed no signs of violence on the victims' bodies. But the investigators agree: This could be negligent homicide. Forensic experts are already on site to collect evidence and clarify the exact circumstances.
The Indian Embassy in Tbilisi has spoken out and expressed its sadness over the loss of the eleven Indian citizens. “We are working closely with local authorities to expedite the return of the bodies to India,” said a spokesman. The embassy is also in contact with the grieving families and offers support.
Carbon monoxide – the secret killer
Carbon monoxide, often called the “silent killer,” is an odorless gas that is produced when fossil fuels are burned incompletely. It can prevent the transport of oxygen in the blood and is particularly insidious because sufferers often do not notice any symptoms while they sleep. The symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning are varied: headache, dizziness, weakness, nausea, chest pain and confusion. In severe cases, sudden death can occur.
Gudauri, a popular destination for ski and snowboard fans, has not yet publicly commented on the tragic incidents. The region, which lies in the Caucasus Mountains, attracts large numbers of tourists every year, but this incident casts a shadow over security in the popular resorts.
The investigation is well underway and the world is watching Georgia with anticipation as authorities try to shed light on this terrible tragedy.
