An investigation has been launched into the death of a man in India who used a high-powered epoxy resin for sexual intercourse, The Times of India reports.
Authorities said Salman Mirza, 25, checked into a hotel in Juhapura with his ex-fiancée on June 22.
Mirza was found unconscious in shrubs near an apartment complex by a friend named Firoz Shaikh the following day.
Shaikh helped take Mirza home, but when his condition worsened, he was transported to a hospital where he eventually died of multiple organ failure.
Witnesses claim Mirza and his ex-fiancée were addicted to drugs. Police believe they occasionally carried the epoxy adhesive because it can be mixed with whitener and inhaled “for a kick.”
However, since the two didn’t have any condoms on them, they decided the next logical course of action would be to apply the adhesive to his private parts.
Mirza’s family is accusing his ex-fiancée of applying the adhesive. “We are waiting for the report on the deceased’s viscera sample that has been sent for forensic examination,” Deputy Police Commissioner Premsukh Delu said.
Officials suspect the two were intoxicated at the time of their rendezvous from consuming a chemical cocktail beforehand.
Mirza is survived by his elderly parents and two sisters.
