Tandoor Iron Angle Touches High Tension Wire, 5 Charred

A high-voltage party turned into a hell hole for five persons when they came into contact with a high tension wire late on Friday night. They were charred beyond recognition and nothing except ashes were found in case of some bodies

The incident occurred when the tandoor with iron angles came in contact with a high tension electricity line near the party venue near Jaipur late on Friday night.

"The incident occurred at around 12.30 a.m., when some of the waiters and labourers at a birthday party were trying to trying to take the tandoor out of a farm house near Bhankrota," a police official said.

"They apparently did not notice high tension lines overhead. Iron angles of tandoor came in contact with these electricity lines and five waiters were electrocuted to death on the spot." Three of the dead bodies have been identified so far.
