While in the bus, the man developed chest pain all of a sudden. However, instead of taking him to hospital or calling for an ambulance, he was made to get down and sit in the bus stand at Ujire. The bus left after leaving him in that condition. The person died there itself.

If the passengers, driver and conductor of the bus had shown some sympathy and taken him to a nearby hospital probably the person would have been saved, say locals.
