Bantwal, Aug 16, 2013 : Mohammad Irshad (23) hailing from Nandavar near Panemangalore, who worked as a driver for a cargo firm in Saudi Arabia met a tragic end when his vehicle collided with another vehicle earlier this month.
Irshad who had left in his goods carrier vehicle on August 5 had been missing since then. His family’s efforts to trace him went futile as even the cargo firm had closed on account of Ramzan. It was only when the firm resumed services after Ramzan and after enquiry that it came to light that Irshad had died in a road mishap.
Irshad, the eldest of the four sons of Abdul Hameed, a resident of near Nandavara School, had been to the Gulf three and a half years ago. After working for two years in Doha he had joined work in the cargo firm as a driver.
His family sources said arrangements are being made to bring the body to hometown for the last rites.
