Kasaragod: Kasaragod native KV Aswin is among the army personnel killed in a defence chopper crash in Upper Siang district of Arunachal Pradesh on Friday. 24-year-old Aswin hails from Kizhakkemuri near Cheruvathur.
The family of the deceased came across the shocking news after the official concerned in the army intimated them about the death. He had been on service since four years.
