A man has been found alive after being declared dead by doctors.

According to Metro UK, the 40-year-old man was found alive in a mortuary freezer after being kept there for seven hours.

Medical staff were stunned when Sreekesh Kumar showed signs of life as police arrived to identify the body and arrange an autopsy with his relatives.

The electrician’s family rushed him to hospital on Thursday after he was involved in an accident in the Indian city of Morabadad, Uttar Pradesh.

He was declared dead shortly after arriving, but when police visited the following morning, relatives noticed signs of movement and alerted doctors.

Recording the discovery, Mr Kuma’s sister-in-law Madhu Bala shouted: ‘He’s not dead, in fact far from it. How did this happen? Look, he wants to say something, he is breathing.’

Moradabad’s chief medical superintendent, Dr Shiv Singh, described the incident as the ‘rarest of rare cases’.

He told the Times of India: ‘The emergency medical officer had seen the patient at around 3am and there was no heartbeat. He told me he had examined the man multiple times.

‘Therefore he was declared dead. In the morning, a police team and his family found him alive.’

Rajendra Kumar, the hospital’s medical superintendent described the situation as ‘nothing short of a miracle’.

After the shocking discovery Mr Kumar was taken back to hospital and was put on a ventilator as he remained in a coma.

Doctors were reportedly unable to operate on him because of a bleeding disorder and he eventually died yesterday.

Mr Kumar’s family said he had a clot in his brain and have since vowed to take legal action against all those responsible for his death.

Dr Singh said the district’s health department is now investigating the matter.
