Coimbatore: In a heart-wrenching incident, two individuals, including an 8-year-old boy, lost their lives while fishing in Sengulam, Kuniamuthur, Coimbatore. The victims were identified as Paris Ahamed (24), a driver residing in Murugan Kovil Street, Madukkarai Market, and his nephew Hayan Ahamed (8), a second-grade student.
