Russian student in Phuket motorbike crash slowly improving

PHUKET: Russian student Sevastan Lukashov, in hospital since March 31 following a serious motorbike accident on the bypass road (story here), is showing signs of recovering from his coma.

A source close to the case told the Phuket Gazette, “His school friends go to visit him from time to time.”

“The British International School arranged the visa which allows Sevastan’s parents to stay in Thailand. The school will do whatever it can to support him and his family,” she added.

After his last visit to Sevastan on April 25, BIS Headmaster Neil Richards told the Gazette, “Sevastan is slowly beginning to show signs of recovery from his coma. His mother and father remain with him at his bedside.”
