Two others are being treated at Rajshahi Medical College Hospital

A Russian national, who worked at the Rooppur Nuclear Power Plant in Pabna, has died reportedly of alcohol poisoning.

Belyy Dmitry died of poisoning around 10:30pm on Saturday.

Two others-- Lev Logachev and Misha-- have been admitted to Rajshahi Medical College Hospital because of alcohol poisoning.

Rajshahi’s Rajpara police station Officer-in-Charge (OC) Hafizur Rahman told the Dhaka Tribune: “Four Russian engineers in Pabna consumed excessive alcohol on Friday. They fell sick the next day [Saturday].”

“They were first taken to Pabna’s Ishwardi Upazila Health Complex and later shifted to Rajshahi Medical College Hospital, where the duty doctors declared Dmitry dead.”

Two other engineers -- Lev Logachev and Misha—are undergoing treatment at Rajshahi Medical College Hospital (RMCH).

RMCH doctor Nafis Rahman said: "Dmitry died of alcohol poisoning. He was dead even before arriving in the hospital.

“The other two are being treated at the hospital. Of them, one is in a better condition."

I suppose they drunk some counterfeit alcohol. It happens.

I suppose they drunk some counterfeit alcohol. It happens.

The other possibility is they just drank too much.

Misha is short of Mikhail (Michael in Europe).

Thats bizarre, how often do u hear that someone drank excess alcohol and died, and that too a Russian

The other possibility is they just drank too much.

Russian folks can drink some serious amount of alcohol. My guess would be they were curious to try some locally produced alcohol without knowing the risk associated with that.

Hope he wasn't drinking on the job...not good for safety in such a densely populated area.

We call that Tharra. Many times this happens here in subcontinent.

This is very sad. We expats all know how boring, lonely and helpless living abroad can be....especially in a remote place.

The Russian company building the Rooppur Project must do more to provide emotional support and social interaction, even within the mini Russian community.

Bangladeshis must do their part as well.

Alcohol is only the last choice when social interaction fails.

My parents told me that Russians were allowed to bring their families to the last large project Russian Govt. built, which is the Ghorasal power station, which is continually being expanded, even today. There was a huge Russian community in Ghorasal back in the day.

RIP to this man we hardly knew.
