Boy stuck in bore pulled out dead in Hyderabad

Hyderabad: The body of three-year-old B. Rakesh, who had fallen into a borewell in Medak district on Saturday, was retrieved on Sunday morning. He died inside the well. The body has been sent to district government hospital for post-mortem. Doctors said he had suffered a severe injury on his forehead.

After digging a parallel well, rescue operators found that Rakesh was stuck upside down in the borewell. Since the terrain was rocky, they could not dig deeper despite using excavators.
