"Friend Died After Saving Me": Manipur Landslide Survivor Recounts Horror | Read
Romen Phukan, 35, still can't believe he is alive. Haunted by the screams for help after the landslide hit their camp in Manipur last week, he recounts how the horror unfolded - and that he saw his friend die in front of him moments after he saved his life. Mr Phukan was among the 80-odd men who were at the site of the incident on Wednesday night, when a catastrophic landslide washed away their camps in Tupul in Noney district, burying those at the site under boulders and mud. At least 42 people have died in the disaster.
