DNA samples collected, it's 72-hour agonising wait for the Kamdar family to get remains

1 2 Nagpur: The agonising wait of victims' families, including the Kamdars of Nagpur, for bodies of their loved ones has now extended to 72 hours after DNA samples were collected, amidst the grief sweeping them. The samples from charred bodies will be matched with the ones collected from their kin before identifying them. A day after the crash, the anger of the Kamdars exploded over the ignorance of the maintenance staff, who may have ignored a possible technical snag in the aircraft, which was reported by the passengers of the connecting flight. "The flight came from Delhi to Ahmedabad. The ones who alighted at Ahmedabad expressed disappointment regarding the AC not working and other discomforts. These complaints were probably not attended to during the one-hour maintenance break at Ahmedabad before it took off," said Paras Kamdar, cousin of Yasha, who died in the crash along with her two-year-old son, Rudra, and mother-in-law Rakshaben. "The authorities collected samples from the victim's parents for matching. All we are getting are assurances and consolations, but what about the trust that was betrayed," he asked, adding there was a discrepancy in maintenance of the aircraft and all red flags were ignored. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch vàng CFDs với mức chênh lệch giá thấp nhất IC Markets Đăng ký Undo Paras, who was with the grieving family, also questioned the trustworthiness of the aviation sector. "Neither the aircraft management body nor the ground staff lost their families. It's the passengers and their kin who faced this overwhelming grief," said Paras.
