Her cries for help were ignored HYDERABAD: It was a nightmare for Aparna Adiraju, a 20-year-old techie with Infosys, after she got trapped inside the wreckage of the vehicle on the outer ring road.
For about an hour, she lay writhing in pain and bleeding profusely beside the dead bodies of her family members - her father, Mahidar Adiraju, who was the Managing Director of Veridian Energy Solutions Private Limited in Vijayawada, her maternal aunt Naga Ramlakshmi and cousin Sindhuja.
It appears Aparna's cries for help fell on deaf ears as none stopped by to help her. Finally, after about an hour, one car driver noticed her and immediately alerted the police.
'Aparna was seated in the back seat and therefore, survived with injuries. The impact was more on those seated in the front. In fact, before entering the city, her father had stopped the car for a moment during which Aparna, who was till then seated just behind him, shifted to the last seat (towards the rear of the car),' a police official said.
The ORR patrolling team traffic sub-inspector Raghu told they had a tough time rescuing Aparna. A huge crane was brought to the spot to dismantle the wreckage.
Police battled for more than one-and-a-half hours to disengage the vehicle from the truck. Aparna is undergoing treatment at a private hospital in Shamshabad.
