Russian Driver 'Dozes Off' Prior To Deadly Crash
Police and rescue workers arrived at the scene to find two Russians trapped inside the damaged car. They were later identified as Mr. Muttafan, 35 and Ms. Aya, 28 (spelling transcribed from Thai text).
Nearby, police found another Russian tourist, identified as Ms. Ira, 28, who is believed to have been thrown out of the car.
The tourists were transported to Sichon Hospital, where Mr. Muttafan and Ms. Ira later died.
Initial investigation revealed that the Russians are relatives on their vacation in Thailand. The family had previously holidayed in Samui Island and later traveled to Malaysia, police said.
On their way back to Samui Island from Malaysia, Mr. Muttafan, who was driving the car, fell asleep and caused the car to spin off the road, eventually hitting a large tree, according to the officers.
