Ajay and his brother, Ramesh, were both headed for London when the Boeing Dreamliner went down seconds after takeoff from the Ahmedabad airport.

In a video posted by the BBC, Ramesh was seen as he joined other mourners to pay their last respects to his brother.

The video showed the moment Ramesh broke down when he saw his brother's coffin, which was carried by mourners.

There were still visible scars of the injuries he sustained in the crash, and people were holding him and consoling him.

He later joined other mourners to carry the coffin as people flocked in their numbers behind.

The coffin was being taken to the crematorium in the town of Diu, India. The BBC reports that the town lost 14 people in the tragic crash.

According to the last radio communication received from the pilot of the aircraft, the Boeing Dreamliner failed to gain thrust, though the official investigation is still ongoing.

Meanwhile, Legit.ng reported that a Nigerian lady said she saw the air crash in India before it happened.

The lady identified on Facebook as Peace Ogbonna Daniel said she saw the event play out before her like a movie.

She said she feels guilty because even though God showed her the impending tragedy, she failed to pray to prevent it. Then I will try to come out.

She claims:

"I didn’t pray to cancel it oo. I didn’t pray to nullify it. I did nothing about that evil thought. I just felt it was some random thought not until yesterday when I came online to see the sad news flying here and there on the lives that were lost as a result of a plane crash that happened in India. A plane had crashed into a building!"
