A 20-year-old passenger, Abaan Ahmed, lost his life in a high-speed crash in Uttar Pradesh's Jhansi on Thursday, according to police. The driver of the vehicle, Zaid, experienced a temporary loss of consciousness just before the accident, which occurred around 10:30 am when the car went out of control and collided with a road divider.

The crash claimed the lives of Abaan and another 20-year-old resident of Prayagraj, Sonu, while the other three occupants are receiving medical treatment. Atiq Ahmed, the father of Abaan, and his brother Ashraf were both killed in a separate incident in Prayagraj in April 2023. The police are awaiting the arrival of the victims' families to complete the necessary formal procedures.
