Air India plane crash survivor’s wife speaks
Ramesh, who was sitting in seat 11A, survived the crash with cuts and injuries, but his brother, with whom he was travelling, died in the fatal accident.
His wife, who spoke to The Times, revealed that her husband had remained in India since the incident and was still undergoing treatment.
She said he was still shattered by the loss of his brother, who sat across the aisle when the plane crash happened.
She said:
“I'm not sure when he's coming back to the UK as his treatment is going on. Everything happened in front of him and the main thing is he lost his brother. He's not talking to anyone in the media, even in India.”
Ramesh had been travelling back to the UK when the accident occurred.
But after surviving the crash, the father-of-one had remained in India with his family, who are supporting him as he tries to live a normal life.
