Grieving wife receives body of husband, victim of maniac truck crash

Wife sadly receives body of husband, victim of truck crash, losing family's breadwinner, calls on relatives of perpetrator to come out and apologize and take responsibility, tells husband not to worry about children Today (5th September), the wife of Mr. Prawit, 39, a motorcycle taxi driver who died in a truck accident in the middle of Bangkok, traveled to receive the body at the Chulalongkorn Hospital's Institute of Forensic Medicine. The wife of the deceased said that every day, her husband would pick up his child from school himself. If he was late, he would notify the homeroom teacher. However, on the day of the accident, a teacher from the school called to say that no parents had come to pick up the child. At first, she was suspicious because her husband usually picked up his child himself every day. At that time, she knew that there had been an accident near Kluai Nam Thai Hospital, but she did not think it was her husband. Until the police contacted her to say that her husband had died. She admitted that she was very sad because she had lost the family's breadwinner. She personally thought that this kind of incident should not have happened because in addition to her husband who died, there were other people who were affected, such as the customer who was riding pillion on her husband's motorcycle when the accident happened. Initial reports indicate that his condition is also critical and he is in the ICU. Since the incident, the relatives of the perpetrator have not apologized or contacted them in any way. Only the insurance company of the car that caused the accident contacted them to talk and apologize for the incident. However, I would like the family or relatives of the deceased to contact me to talk or apologize and take responsibility for what happened. When reporters asked if there was anything she wanted to say to her husband, the wife said, 'Don't worry about your child and don't hold a grudge against anyone.' After the family receives the body, they will travel to the scene of the accident t o hold a ceremony to invite the spirit to perform religious rites at Makkasan Temple. There will be a 3-night prayer ceremony and the cremation will be on Sunday, September 8. Source: Thai News Agency
