He was travelling with his son, a Class 10 student named Ajmala (15) on his two-wheeler to seek guidance from a Kabaddi coach in Navakarai area of Coimbatore before sending him to a kabaddi tournament in Trichy. When Zakir Hussain, who was coming from Pollachi via Velandavalam, came near the KG Chavadi check post, a speeding car from the opposite side rammed into his two-wheeler.
