Meerut: The mysterious death of 25-year-old labourer Amit, alias Mikki, in Meerut’s Akbarpur Sadat village took a dramatic turn, with the postmortem report ruling out snake bite as the primary cause of death.
Contrary to claims by the deceased’s family members earlier, the report states that Amit died of suffocation, raising suspicions of foul play.

Amit was found dead in his home two days ago, with a huge snake reportedly sitting beneath his body. The victim’s family claimed that he had been bitten ten times and the snake had bizarrely remained under the bed all night without moving. They further added that after finding the bite marks on his body, they rushed him to a local doctor in Bulandshahr district, where he was declared dead upon arrival.
As per a report by News18, the snake was later captured by a snake charmer and was handed over to the forest officials. Despite these accounts, the postmortem reports contradicted the claims of a snake bite. The Police also called in Amit’s family for questioning after the report was released.
Injury Marks Hint at Suspicion of Murder
Speaking about the case, SP Rural Rakesh Kumar Mishra told News18, “In the post-mortem, apart from snake bite marks on the body, some injury marks were also found. The viscera has been preserved. The post-mortem report says that the death was due to suffocation. Further investigation is underway.”
While the cause of death now points to asphyxiation, police are expanding their investigation further to ascertain the exact motive of the crime. The police’s suspicion has now shifted towards multiple individuals, including Amit’s wife, as they are exploring potential involvement in his planned murder.
As per the report, villagers had earlier voiced doubts about the snake bite story, which now appears to have been a cover-up.
