Mumbai waiter dies after testing 12 samples of wine

Mumbai, Jan 22 (IBNS) A 35-year-old employee of a well known bar-and-restaurant in Mumbai died on Wednesday evening immediately after participating in a wine-tasting session, reports said.
Pukhrimayum Akhtar Hussain, who was training to become a captain at the Yellow Bar All Day at Khar, died a few hours after participating in the wine-tasting workshop.
 
While a post-mortem is yet to be conducted, forensic experts said that, prima facie, the death could be due to poisoning from chemical reactions.
 
 Colleagues said Hussain had tasted around 10 different samples and had a full glass of wine after the workshop ended. The Khar police are investigating the case after registering an Accidental Death Report.
 
Soon after the workshop, Hussain was found at the gate of the restaurant in an inebriated state. The security personnel informed the managers, who asked Hussain to rest inside the bar. He was later taken to Bhabha Hospital, where he was pronounced dead on arrival.
