Traditional beer possibly contaminated with crocodile bile has killed 69 people in Mozambique, health authorities have said.
Those who drank the contaminated brew were attending a funeral in the region on Saturday, district health official Alex Albertini said.
Pombe, a traditional Mozambican beer, is made from millet or corn flour. Authorities believe that the drink was poisoned with crocodile bile during the course of the funeral.
On Sunday evening, it was reported that 56 people had been killed and a further 49 people admitted to hospitals in the Chitima and Songo districts in the northeastern Tete province.
