A 29-year-old man of Milandu village in Monze has allegedly committed suicide by taking a poisonous substance.
Chikuni Mission Hospital acting Medical Officer, Dr. Patrick Sichundu said the deceased identified as Chris Choobe was taken to the facility around 04:00 hours, yesterday.
Dr. Sichundu said Mr Choobe is suspected to have taken a drug used on cattle around 20 hours on Sunday and was only rushed to the hospital for treatment early yesterday.
He explained that health personnel tried to resuscitate the deceased but it was too late partly because of the prolonged period after taking the poison.
