Smuggler-actress tries to kill herself in Chittoor sub-jail

Sangeeta drank toilet cleaner kept in one of the jail’s washrooms and then collapsed.

TIRUPATI: Air hostess-turned model Sangeeta Chatterjee, who is in Chittoor sub-jail after she was arrested about six months ago on charges of involvement in the smuggling of red sanders, attempted
suicide on Thursday afternoon. Police said Sangeeta drank toilet cleaner kept in one of the jail’s washrooms and then collapsed.

Other prisoners who noticed Sangeeta writhing in pain alerted authorities who shifted her to Chittoor Government Hospital immediately. The doctors cleaned her stomach and administered oxygen as she lost consciousness suddenly. She began responding to treatment in the evening but doctors shifted her to SVIMS here so that she could be given better medical help.
