Gita walked into the room while talking on the phone and without seeing the snakes, she sat down on the bed. The snakes bit her and within minutes, she fell unconscious.

Other family members rushed her to a nearby hospital where she died during treatment.

When the family members and neighbours returned to her room, the snakes were found on the bed. Angry neighbours beat the reptiles to death.

Veterinary experts said that the reptiles were apparently mating when the woman sat on them.
