The deceased have been identified as Ashmid Ashraf (20) from Kozhikkode; Shifaam Musthafa (20) from Panoor, Kannur; and Mohammed Sunoon (21) from Kozhikkode.

The youths were returning after visiting a friend's house when the horrific accident took place in Sharjah's Madam area around 1.30am. The driver of the youths' car tried to take a U-turn from an unauthorised area on the road, when another speeding car crashed into theirs.

The three youths were killed on the spot, while the driver of the other car - a 25-year-old Yemeni - sustained minor injuries.

Meanwhile, the Middlesex University has expressed deep condolences to the families of the boys.

"Middlesex University Dubai Students and Staff mourn the loss of Ashmid Ashraf, Muhammed Shifam and Mohammed Sunoon in a tragic accident. Our deepest sympathies and condolences to their families," reads the Facebook post of the university.

Udupi, June 30: A girl who appeared for SSLC exams in three subjects tested positive for COVID-19 in Kundapur taluk of Udupi district today.

Sheshashayana Karinja, Deputy Director of Public Instruction (DDPI) said that the 15-year-old girl had a headache and her parents took her for testing and she had tested positive for COVID-19.

She will appear for the remaining three subjects during the supplementary exams in August.

The room where the girl appeared for the exam had been sanitised. But exams would not be held in that room. All precautions have been taken in that exam centre in Kundapur taluk, Mr. Karinja said.

The other 19 students will be allowed to write their exams as there was a distance of one metre between them and there was no contact between the students during the exams, Mr. Karinja added.

It is learned that a couple of months ago, a Mumbai returnee who recovered from COVID-19 had visited the girl’s house. However, it is not clear that she got an infection from the Mumbai returnee.

It could be recalled here that a student from Hejamadi in Udupi district who was preparing for the Science exam had tested positive two days back and she is currently being treated at a hospital.
