Mangalore: Sighting of Crash, Rushing for Rescue – Scramble on for Credit

Daijiworld Media Network – Mangalore (SP)

Mangalore, May 29: There is a tussle between different persons over the issue of who was the first to see the air crash happening and rushing to rescue distressed people. The concerned vouch for the veracity of their respective claims and dub the claim of others as false.

It may be recalled that Satish Devadiga and his friends, residing near the airport, held a press conference in the city two days ago. They had termed claims made by Sameer that he was the first to see the crash happening and also to help the passengers, as false. Devadiga and his associates had claimed that they in fact, were the first to witness the crash and reach the accident spot.

On Friday May 28, Mohammed Sameer from Malavoor village near the airport, held a press conference here. He termed the information given by Satish Devadiga at the press conference as misleading. “The crash occurred in front of my eyes at 5.57 am on May 22.

At 6.02 am, I called the police control room and told them the route to reach the crash site. At 6.04 am, I received a call from the policemen, seeking directions to reach there. At 6.14, the police commissioner called me over phone to collect details of the incident and road to reach there. Immediately after the crash, I and a few youths from my village ran over to the place. It took 15 minutes for us to reach there. We brought injured passenger named Sabrina, who was stuck in a tree, down and handed over her to people coming from behind. We saw two youngsters trying to jump out of the airplane and heard the wails of a baby. Before we could rush and rescue them, the plane exploded.

My friend, K M Shariff, brought Abdul and Farooq to the main road on his motor bike from the site. One of the injured was taken to hospital in an auto rickshaw, while the other was entrusted to his relatives. We never want to claim credit for helping the distressed, which was done purely with humanitarian consideration. At the same time, we do not expect anything in return. Police officers have praised us for the services. This clarification is given because of the false claims being made by some people,” he said.

Naushad, brother of Sameer, and K M Shariff, were present.

the claim made by these kids is debatable cos once the plane crashes the ATF and the police force at the airport inform the cops so these kids claiming that they called the cops is debatable if they did and what they said is true then the above mentioned should be sued and taken to task.
next is that what i saw on the news was that there were people alive until 30 minutes after the crash wondering what the fire brigade was at the airport was doing?
this incident should be an eye opener to the Indians who languish in their own world of hatred.
Thanks for reading

Mr.Sathish and Mr.Mohammed Sameer, thanks for helping. Tell us what are you expecting from the people of India. Are you expecting any awards from Government of India? In that case, we all request the president of India to give them what they deserve. Please stop arguing and calling any press conferences......

Its quite unfortunate that , you guys are fighting for the credit.. If you were helped then its purity of your heart.. you proved your humanity .. if you were really worried of credit then your help was just a fake... you wanted to utilize the scene for publicity... it should not happen .. !! Whoever it may be , you all done great job by doing good things.. You guys made Mangaloreans proud.. Please don't fight for name !!!

Guys you have been the angels of God in helping the needy in time. All of you those who helped the needy are really great. But holding press conferences to prove whose statements are true and who is false is a total contradiction of your goodness.
Guys you have done great deeds, please hide it under the mat, God will surely bless you for what you guys have done.

AMIN MANGALORE,

CERTAINLY OUR FAITH FORBIDS THE FACT IF RIGHT HAND RENDERS SERVICE THE LEFT SHALL NOT KNOW.THAT MEANS SERVICE IS NOT FOR SALE OR FOR APPRICIATION.

BEING MR SAMEER A MUSLIM BY FAITH HE IS COMPLETLY WRONG BUT THER IS CERTAIN POINTS ON RECORD WHICH FORCED HIM TO CALL FOR PRESS MEET.ANY HOW I TOTALLY DISAGREE WITH HIM BEING I AM A MUSLIM.

THANKS FOR YOUR POISIONOUS ADIVISE WHICH SHOWS YOUR STATE OF MIND AND KEEP IT UP.

MR AJITH MANGALORE,

MR SAMEER IS RIGHT BECAUSE FOR THE SAKE OF ARGUMENT,ON RECORD ALL MATRIALS ARE PROVIDED TO THE PRESS. IF ANY SHORTCOMINGS ON THE ISSUE LET PRESS BRING THE TRUTH ON THE CLAIMINGS. THE ISSUE RAISED BY YOU IS SILLY AND I REMINED MR SAMEER OF HIS DUTY BY GIVING AN GOOD EXAMPLE.IF THAT HURTS YOUR FEELING YOU NEED SOME SORT OF COUNSELING.

Dear reader & DAIJIWORLD, i was also in the spot when the plane is already crashed. on 22nd i was on my morning ride as usual, when i heared about crash immediately i rushed to maravoor, where i have seen the smoke bit far from spot at 06.20am, when i tried to call my freinds as much possible to reach the spot! meantime i was running towards to spot via parrallel way accrossing the railway track where there much visibility of smoke/spot. at the time when i reached to the spot i have seen Sameer and some more of maravoor known peoples was already in the spot and i was bit far from sameer and his colligues, they are trying to defend the lives from crashed plane,I was in oppsite side (on bottom of the trees) where i got shoked after seeing horrible sean. I was trying to go the spot above where the Sameer few people was standing on top of my eye view, i scared to move forward because of huge smoke and flame, also i tried to find other way to reach on top. at the same time smoke covered the area where i was standing, so i came down till railway track, again i heared i big noise between the smoke that makes me fully confusion to move forward on same way. As my vision there is no one tring to dedicate their lives for scramble the credits/award. If you wanna know more please contact me on 91 9945425001 Harris Madani from Bajpe.

What about the railway trackman – N. Syed Bilal Ahmed? There was a news report in Daijiworld a couple of days back that he helped rescue seven persons. We Mangaloreans are very grateful to all those who helped during this terrible tragedy. It really does not matter who came first and who came last. It appears that we may need another court of inquiry to settle this irrelevant issue.

Shame on Devadiga and friends for the claim they made on this tragic issue, when most of the people still not come out of most sad incident in the history of Mangalore. Even though I have not seen this from my eyes, I feel great sorrow for those who burnt alive specially small innocent children. I cannot imagine that last moment of tragedy. But these people who have come forward to claim seen from their own eyes, and just forgotten the sufferings of so many innocent people.

These yougstars are come bravely in front of the media and showed the proof that they were the first ones to serve. It is belibeable because they have grven certain proofs, like tele phone to contact police and also given the names of the the Muslims who came later and also they hand over the injurd people to send them to Hospitel. I feel the claim is true.

And mainly anyone came firt or next, Hindu or Muslim, the great thing to see the service to the manind ignoring the religion or tribe.

God Bless every hand who served the needy.

It does not matter who had seen the incident, reached the spot first and helped the injured ones. Whoever had reached first, second or third is not so important, the main thing is that all these Guardian Angels have taken a great risk of their own lives and done a great job. Certainly God will bless them and their family. Let us not compete with each other to gain name and fame during such disaster instead lets pray to the Almighty to give enough courage to the deceased family members to bear the loss.

God alone knows the truth. There are claims and counter claims. Why to call for press and give a statement? A good samaritan will not stoop to this level. Whoever has done the good work, should not forget that there is some good fortune in store for them from God. All good works are repaid in proportions. Please come out of the nutshell and have a big heart.

Mangaloreans, especially people from in and around Bajpe were praised for their humanitarian help during the disaster. You all who took active part in this commendable job made us Mangaloreans proud. Now, do not destroy this credit by claiming superiority over simple things. Do not try to please people, but, to God. Viva Mangalore !!
