Summary
- An excise constable died after being run over by ganja smugglers.
- The incident occurred on January 24 in Nizamabad district.
- She was on life support at NIMS hospital before her passing.
An excise constable, G Soumya, tragically passed away on Saturday at Nizam's Institute of Medical Sciences (NIMS) in Hyderabad. She had been battling for her life since being mowed down by suspected ganja smugglers on January 24 in Madhavanagar village, Nizamabad district. Despite continuous medical attention and best efforts, doctors at NIMS confirmed her passing.
Soumya was critically injured when the driver of a car, carrying suspected ganja, accelerated and rammed her as she stood in front of the vehicle during a routine check. Initially treated at a local hospital, she underwent emergency surgery for spleen and kidney removal before being transferred to NIMS for advanced care. She suffered severe liver injuries and multiple rib fractures.
Her condition deteriorated as multiple organs began to fail, necessitating renal replacement therapy. Although advanced life support measures were administered, her response to treatment remained limited, leading to the unfortunate outcome. The incident highlights the dangers faced by law enforcement officials combating drug trafficking.
