A dip in a swimming pool with friends turned fatal for a 19-year-old man in Hyderabad following which a case was registered against the management, police said on Tuesday.
The incident took place a day earlier when Mohd Rizwan Khan, who worked in a provisions store, went for a swim in the pool in Yakatpura area along with his four friends.
When his friends could not find Khan they searched for him and later found him at the bottom of the pool. They took him to hospital where doctors declared him brought dead, Reinbazar Police Station Inspector G Ramesh said.
Asked about reports that the youth along with his friends had placed a bet on who will dive deep from the platform, the inspector denied the same.
The youth's father, who was informed about the incident, later lodged a complaint with police seeking an inquiry into the death of his son.
Following the complaint, a case under IPC section 304A (causing death by negligence) has been registered against the management of the swimming pool, the police officer said. "We are verifying if there is any fault of the coach...further investigations are on," he said.
