The tragic accident that killed two promising
models on the Vyttila-Palarivattom National
Highway Bypass last week has claimed one
more life, with one of the two persons under
treatment in a private hospital since then
succumbing to the injuries on Sunday night.
The deceased was identified as Mohammad
Ashiq, 25, of Vemballur in Thrissur.
He had been on ventilator support in the
Intensive Care Unit (ICU) since the accident after
suffering multiple fractures and injuries,
including to the head.
He died around 8:25 p.m. on Sunday and the
body was handed over to the relatives by
Palarivattom police on Monday after conducting
the post mortem.
He was working with a Thrissur-based
advertising firm and reportedly assisted several
ad filmmakers.
Abdul Rahman, 25, of Mala, who was reportedly
driving the car, is now out of danger and has
been shifted out of the ICU. He is likely to be
discharged shortly, according to hospital
sources
He survived with minor injuries thanks to the
airbag, which absorbed the impact of the
accident after the speeding car crashed into a
tree along the highway at Chakkaraparambu.
The car was reduced to rubble following the
accident, which reportedly took place between
1:00 a.m. and 1:30 a.m. on November 1.
