In a shocking incident, a 25-year-old airline employee was killed after being trapped between an aircraft and the aerobridge, at the Rajiv Gandhi International Airport, on Sunday.
The victim has been identified as Amrutha Roy, who was working as Guest Service Officer with the carrier 'Air Asia'.
Amrutha was jotting some official notes when sitting by the side of an aerobridge, when it closed trapping her left hand.
Being left-handed, Amrutha was forced to lean and try to drag her arm out of harm's way. Within a few moments, the aerobridge closed on her, crushing her chest.
According to RGIA sub-inspector P Anjaiah, the horrified employees tried to pry Amrutha away, even as others rushed to the aerobridge controls to open it.
A 108 ambulance rushed Amrutha to a corporate hospital, where she was pronounced brought dead.
Amrutha was the daughter of Kamal Roy, a native of Kolkata, and currently residing at Happy Homes in Chinthalmet.
A case has been registered, and the body sent for autopsy.
