Indian plane crash survivor wins $1m lottery

It has been down to sheer luck for Indian man, Mohammad Basheer Abdul Khadar, who recently survived a plane crash, then went on to win a million dollar lottery days after.


Abdul Khadar was one of 300 passengers on-board a Dubai bound flight who survived a crash after the aircraft caught fire as it was about to land on Wednesday, August 3, 2016.

According to Gulf News, the lucky man had bought a lottery ticket on his way to India for an holiday. He realized this was a winning slip upon his return to Dubai.

Full of good heart and care for the needy, Abdul Khadar has outlined how he plans to spend his winnings.

“I clearly need to help the kids in Kerala who are less blessed than others and need some budgetary help and medicinal backing.

“I would prefer not to offer it to a philanthropy or manufacture a business, I need to go out and discover individuals who truly require help and give them cash.
“I was poor, and I comprehend what individuals experience.”

Reports has it that Abdul Khadar, who is married with children is currently nursing a paralyzed child following an accidental fall at infancy.
