Hyderabad: In an incident reported from Wanaparthy district on Saturday three persons washed away while trying to cross a submerged bridge.
The deceased persons were identified as 35-year-old Santoshamma, her 18-year-old daughter Parimala and 25-year-old Sai Kumar, Santoshamma’s nephew. The incident occurred when the two women were returning from Kothakota to Koukuntla village of Devarkadra Mandal.
The women had gone to Kothakota to celebrate Dasara with Sasntoshamma’s sister. Even though the two women wanted to return by train, Kumar insisted on taking them on the bike. The man decided to cross the low-lying bridge despite the risk involved.
Upon reaching the halfway point, Kumar lost control of the vehicle and all of them were washed away. The locals tried to save the victims but in vain. The police arrived at the spot and conducted search operations, which did not yield a result since it was dark.
