It is a double tragedy and mourning for the Indian family of Daniyelbhai as their only son, Christian Lawrence Daniyelbhai, was confirmed as one of the victims of the ill-fated Air India flight AI-171 crash on June 12.

His tragic death comes weeks after his father's death due to health-related complications.

Speaking to an NTT journalist who visited them, Lawrence's grieving mum, Ravina, tearfully narrated how he had returned home on May 31 for his father's funeral and had stayed in India for 10 days.

He was scheduled to return to London, where he lives with his wife, on June 12, but sadly lost his life in the crash.

"He had returned on the 31st for his father's funeral. He stayed for 10 days and was returning home on the 12th. He was here to place a cross on his father's grave.

"His father died around 15 days back. He was here for the last rites," Ravina said.

Ravina said they have not told Lawrence's wife yet about his passing.

"We told her about the crash, but withheld the fact that Lawrence is no more. She is all alone. How will she manage?"

The bereaved woman said they had all seen Lawrence off to the airport and that he kept texting her before the flight took off.

He was supposed to take her to London the next time he visited home.

Speaking to the NTT journalist, Lawrence's younger sister narrated how she learnt about his death.

"A sister of ours called me up and said that the news channels were saying that his flight had crashed. We checked and immediately rushed to the hospital."

She shared a touching video of her last moment with him at the airport before the crash happened. Lawrence was the family's breadwinner, catered for his sister's schooling and paid their monthly rent in India.

"Mother, I can't imagine the pain of losing a husband, a father... Let alone losing a son, a brother in just 2 weeks... :( I wouldn't wish this on anyone and I feel very sorry for this family, as well as for the other families of the other victims... Those on the plane and those on the ground... This family will watch this farewell at the airport for the rest of their lives, hoping that their son, brother, grandson... won't get on board this plane and turn back."

"I hope Tata and the indian government and the generous people of india can financially support this family ...who is gone is gone but those women need help."

"Oh my God this is so painful to watch.....God give them strength. Majority of the ppl that perished on the flight from crew members to passengers were bread winners. Omg even though there will be a compensation for the families nothing can ever bring back her son 😢😢😢😢😢 So so unfair."

@vivianbarths6022 said:

"He was such a good son and brother. To lose a breadwinner like this, a man who had compassion on his family, and didn't see them as a financial burden, yet did all he could do to make life easier for them. This is such a big blow to his family."

@tesseoul said:

"My heart goes to Lawrence and his family. He was a good son and a brother. I hope the airline helps them financially. I like when the reporter said, "God will take care of everything." Yes, God will heal them and give them provision. God bless your family."
