Sakeena Masood, accompanied by senior govt officials visited affected village under Kotranka Tehsil to review situation on Sunday

JAMMU: Jammu and Kashmir Health Minister Sakeena Masood on Sunday said a probe into the recent mysterious deaths of seven persons at a remote village in Rajouri district is yet to reach any conclusion.

Masood, accompanied by Minister for Jal Shakti, Forest and Tribal Affairs Javed Ahmed Rana, senior government officials and local MLA Javed Ahmad Choudhary, visited the affected village under Kotranka Tehsil to review the situation on Sunday.

Seven persons -- a man and his four children, and two siblings of another couple -- died at Badhaal village in two separate incidents on December 8 and 12, with officials initially suspecting food poisoning as the cause of their mysterious deaths.

Expressing grief over the loss of lives, Masood said 28 villagers got affected but all of them, including those undergoing treatment at hospitals Jammu and Rajouri, were stable.
