The deceased wanted to do something for this village and bring it national fame. Reportedly, he learned how to make helicopters on YouTube. He gathered all the study material online and started welding parts of the chopper in his workshop. It took him two years to gather all the necessary parts, equipment and motors.
After the accident, his friends who were accompanying him during the test, rushed him to a hospital in Pusad. However, he had lost the battle of life before any medical help could reach him.
Ibrahim had named his helicopter Munna Helicopter? as Munna was his nickname. His last rites were performed on Wednesday night in presence of his family members. Villagers were present in large numbers too.
Reportedly, the police took Ibrahims chopper into their custody and also brought his elder brother along with his three friends for further questioning.
