The Brit woman was pronounced dead, while the German couple remain hospitalised. The Fort Magistrate’s Court has since ordered the hostel to shut down pending a full investigation.

Authorities, including cops, public health inspectors, and judicial medical officers, are now probing the circumstances surrounding the incident.
A post-mortem examination will be conducted once the victim’s relatives arrive to formally identify her remains. More to follow...
