A British teenager with a severe allergy to dairy products died after a classmate put a piece of cheese under his shirt.
The incident occurred last June at a high school in Greenford, 13-year-old Karanbir Chima fainted after contact with an allergen, writes The New York Post.
The paramedics took the guy to a local hospital, where he was unconscious for two weeks, after which he died.
Karanbir's classmate, who is also 13 years old, was later charged with attempted murder. The consideration of this case in court began on September 19.
Paramedic Kirin Oppatt told the court that when they called, they were told "just about an allergic reaction," but when he arrived, he saw that the guy was choking. According to the doctor, the student lost consciousness and stopped breathing shortly after his arrival.
“Upon arriving on scene, I immediately realized that this was a life-threatening incident and that the patient was at high risk for cardiac and respiratory failure,” Oppatt said.
The school staff told the physician about the allergy of the victim, as well as that a classmate chased him with a piece of cheese, which eventually stuck Caranbiru under his t-shirt.
According to Oppat, the boy's skin was cool and hot, a hives appeared on it, and besides, the schoolchild could barely breathe.
The mother of the deceased Rina Chima was present at the trial, she said that she was “devastated” by the loss of her son, adding that he was a wonderful person and could achieve success in life. A woman demands that the perpetrator be brought to justice.
