The victim has been identified as Abdul Razzak Mavlavi (40), son of Abbas Mavlavi, a resident of Macchampady. He was the chief cleric of a mosque at Majeerpalla Urni in Kasaragod district.

The tragedy occurred at around 12:30 p.m. when Mavlavi was on his way to Urni from Hosangady on his Pulsar.

The driver of the tipper lorry coming from the opposite direction took to the extreme right while negotiating a curve and rammed into the two-wheeler.

Though the cleric was rushed to a nearby hospital immediately, doctors pronounced him brought dead.

Local residents said that even though the accident spot was not far away from the Manjeshwar police station, the cops took more than two hours to reach there.
