Puttur, Jun 15: A youth who had been in a coma following a road accident involving a car and a motorcycle succumbed to his injuries at his rented residence in Nekkilady on June 14.
The deceased has been identified as Badruddin Math, a native of Math village who was residing in a rented house at Nekkilady. He was employed at a hotel in Kootel.
