The British man who was the sole survivor of last week's Air India plane crash has helped lay his brother to rest at a funeral in western India. Vishwashkumar Ramesh's brother Ajay was also on the ill-fated flight but did not survive the tragedy.

After leaving hospital, Vishwash Kumar Ramesh attended the funeral of his brother - one of the 241 people killed on Flight AI171 to Gatwick - as UK experts help investigate the cause of the crash.

The sole survivor of the Air India disaster carried the coffin of his brother to his funeral hours after being discharged from hospital. Vishwash Kumar Ramesh stumbled out of the burning jet moments before it exploded, whilst all other 241 onboard – including his brother Ajay – were killed.
