East London tavern tragedy update: Was a deadly party drug the cause?

after a mysterious tragedy hit a tavern in East London, the public wants to know what exactly killed the group of teenagers, some as young as 13 years old.reported that “there is speculation that patrons were either exposed to some form of poison or an incident that resulted in a large number being injured and killed in a stampede. It’s understood bodies are lying strewn across tables, chairs and on the floor at the club – with no obvious signs of injury”.

According to Unathi Binqose, spokesperson for the Eastern Cape Department of Community Safety, initial autopsy autopsy results also point to the cause of death being from something they inhaled or ingested. In an interview with the Daily Maverick, Binqose stated that the forensic pathologists “said it was something they ingested, possibly from the beers they were consuming, or something they inhaled from those hubbly-bubblies [water pipes or hookahs] that they were smoking”.

The Facebook invitation indicates that “hooka food and alcohol” would have been available on the night. Although forensic investigations suggest that the cause of death could possibly have been something consumed or inhaled, nothing has been confirmed by authorities yet.
