Malaysian Medical students killed in Chennai Road Mishap

CHENNAI, Nov 13 (Bernama) -- Muhammad Akmal Shahiran Marzukhi''s dream to become a doctor was cut short after he was killed in a road accident in south India on Thursday.

Akmal, a first year student at the JJM Medical College in Davangere in the state of Karnataka, was riding pillion on a motorcycle ridden by another student when the accident happened.

His friend had tried to avoid an auto rickshaw (three-wheeler) but lost control of the motorcycle, which skidded off the road and fell into a ditch.

Akmal suffered multiple skull fractures and died on the same day in a local hospital. His friend survived.

The 19-year-old Mara-sponsored student arrived in India to pursue his medical course last September.

Malaysia''s Consul-General Anuar Kasman said the body was flown out of Bangalore to KL International Airport early this morning.

His funeral would be held in Kuala Kedah.
