Another TN man dies in Benghazi

As violence raged in Libya, Thalaivankottai, a little-known hamlet in Tamil Nadu's southern district of Tirunelveli, lost another of its sons.

T Ashok Kumar (24), who was injured in the accident that killed the first victim, Murugaiah, died in a hospital in Benghazi on Wednesday.

Ashok Kumar along with Murugaiah (42) and M Muthukumar (29), also from Tirunelveli, were trying to flee the unrest in Libya when their vehicle met with an accident.

Murugaiah died on the spot and the other two were admitted to hospital with injuries. Tirunelveli district collector M Jayaraman said he got confirmation about Ashok Kumar's death from the ministry of external affairs.
