Fundraiser For Repatriation Of Iraqi Family Killed In Ballinasloe Crash Reaches €60,000

Karzan Ahmed, his wife Shahen and their nine month old baby were among those who died on the M6.

A Go Fund Me page to repatriate the bodies of a family killed in a crash in Galway last week to Iraq, has raised over €60,000.

Karzan Ahmed and his wife Shahen, as well as their nine month old baby Lina were among four people who died on the M6 near Ballinasloe last Thursday evening.

Another car hit their vehicle after travelling the wrong way down the motorway.

The organisers of the fundraiser say baby Lina never got to meet her family in Iraq, and are trying to bring their bodies back home.
