Imphal, February 04 2016:
A woman was killed in a road accident that took place at Noney, Tamenglong district along Imphal-Jiribam highway at around 7 pm yesterday.
A group of people were returning to Awangkhul from Luangleiband after attending a marriage ceremony in a Shaktiman truck when the truck met with an accident between Noney oil pump and the 8th Assam Rifles camp.
The deceased victim has been identified as Giangthuigongliu Kamson (50) d/o late Namsulung of Awangkhul.
As the truck's brake system went out of function, the woman jumped off the truck although the driver was saying that it would be alright.
But she was run over by the same truck in which she was travelling.
Another man travelling in the same truck sustained some injuries but all other passengers escaped unhurt, informed a source.
