 KARACHI: Fourteen men died in the city on Sunday and Monday after they consumed poisonous liquor. Six men died in Chakiwara, Lyari. Their names and other details could not be ascertained as relations of the dead men took away their bodies from private and government hospitals without post-mortem, to save their families' reputation. Most of the deaths took place in Kharadar. In another incident in Kharadar, poisonous liquor killed Noor, Umar and Ayub in Baldia Town on Sunday. The relatives did not allow their autopsy and buried them at the earliest for fear of social stigma.
