A young man lost his life after accidentally coming into contact with a high-tension power line while attempting to chase monkeys away.

The incident occurred when the victim was trying to drive monkeys away from the area, reportedly using a long object. During the attempt, the object came into contact with a high-voltage electrical line, resulting in a fatal electric shock.

The impact of the electric current caused the victim to collapse instantly. He sustained severe injuries and died at the scene before any medical assistance could be provided.

Witnesses reported that the situation unfolded suddenly, leaving little time for intervention. The incident has raised concerns about safety around high-tension lines, particularly in areas where people may attempt to handle animals or objects near electrical infrastructure.

Authorities are expected to investigate the circumstances surrounding the incident and have reiterated warnings about the dangers of coming into contact with high-voltage power lines.
