Hyderabad: A 17-year-old boy named Mohammed Ibrahim died after being kicked in the stomach by a horse during a Moharram procession in the city on Wednesday.
Ibrahim lived in Ghazi-e-Millat colony and was studying at a private college. On Wednesday evening, he went to attend the Alam procession at Engine Bowli, Falaknuma with his friends.
The police reported that Ibrahim was walking with other participants when a horse in the procession kicked him in the stomach. He fell to the ground and was taken to the hospital after complaining of stomach pain.
